To do anything with the forms runtime window, use FORMS_MDI_WINDOW in place of your window name. eg

[tt]Set_Window_Property(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW,WINDOW_STATE,MAXIMIZE);[/tt]

This is also useful for setting your forms window to the centre of the current screen.

Set_Window_Property(WINDOW_NAME in varchar2,Property In Number,Value in Varchar2);

is in the Built in packages (Standard Extensions)
but What i use is

Set_Window_Property(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW,WINDOW_STATE,MAXIMIZE);

what is the reason , is WINDOW_STATE a variable of NUMBER type, If so Where can i get the appropriate values for the parameters.
