Hello,

I am having issues with Oracle Forms/Reports 6i with Windows XP.
I have session issues as well as printing reports problems.

I have heard that Windows XP is not a certificed operating system with
Oracle Forms/Reports 6i. Can anyone confirm this to me ?

Regards,

PT

PS: I heard that there is a Patch issued by Oracle (Patch 11 ???) that
might resolve these kind or problems (???) If it exists where can I
get it ? do I need to buy it ?

First thing we need is 'Which Windows XP'. (I suspect WinXP Home, as people
who use Professional usually are knowledgeable enough specify.)

Oracle has stated they will not certify any Oracle product on XP Home. This
has been discussed many times in this list.

Oracle HAS certified 6i with Patch 13 on XP Pro. I note however that you
have to ask about certification. Certify is an app in Metalink (available
on every page). I suspect you do not have access to Metalink and therefore
no access to the patch.
