bean area accessing form procedures

[Toe]

is it possible to to get java code running in a bean area to call procedures in a form?

i have created a bean area in a form that calls soem java i have written that does the processing. problem is, i currently have to create an external JDBC connection to the database to get/save informateion - and this requires a modification to the java.policy file on each client (which i would rather not have to do!)

I would like to use the database connection from the from to do the database work - for example by calling a procedure in the form.

Is this possible(and how) - or does anyone know of a better way of doing it?

thanks,
