Determines whether Oracle Forms automatically compiles the active module before running a form. When Build Before Running is checked, Oracle Forms does the following when you issue the Program | Run Form command to run a specified form:
This option lets you avoid issuing separate Compile and Run commands each time you modify and then run a form. However, this option does not save the module. You must select File | Save to save the module, or check the Save Before Building preference.
Also, when the Build Before Running option is checked, Oracle Forms does not automatically compile any menu or library modules attached to that form. You must compile menu and library modules separately before running a form that references them.
Default: Off
