File Download

The File Download menu option is used to generate and then download a file. The registry setting FORMS90 OUTPUT is added on the Application Server during installation. You can then select Miscellaneous>File Download from the User menu to download export files from this file server.

Note: In S&C and SFA, the File Download option is available from the Miscellaneous menu independent of the license code OPP_EXP being active.

File Download Screen

The File Download screen displays the following information.

File Name. Actual name of the file that will be downloaded.

Folder. Location of where the file is located and will be downloaded from.

The actual file location will be defined by the value that is entered in the \ORACLE\FORMS90_OUTPUT Windows Registry variable.

Note: The given export file path should exist on the Application Server as a physical path, and not a mapped drive.

Therefore, in the following example

\\NT10365\TEMP

\\NT10365 would be the application server and \TEMP would be a physical path on the Application Server.
