i'm using Forms Developer and i want to call a file that is in a UNIX Server.

I have used the following instruction:
UTL_FILE.FOPEN ('/path','filename','r')

but nothing....

Can u help me?
Thanks in advance.
 
UTL_FILE is a database server instruction so it will be executed on the database server rather than on Forms server. It also depends on some database settings. You may use TEXT_IO for file input/output on Forms server but your server procces should have appropriate rights.
