Talking to Oracle Forms?

Hello all-
I currently am writing a VB application that will be invoked from Oracle Forms. Once my VB application does what it is designed to do, I need to return to Oracle Forms a customer ID number.

I was thinking about returning this number as the Return/Exit/Error code, but I don't know how to do that in VB. This would bascially be a custom Return code, very simple in C/C++, not so simple in VB.

My other option is to directly talk to Oracle Forms and pass the customer ID number before exiting my VB application. I've found little to no information about that.

I've also thought about storing this number to a file, but the people writing the Oracle Forms part aren't real happy with this possible solution.

Does anyone out there have any ideas on how I could go about this?

A huge thanks to anyone with ideas.
Eric
