Hi ALL-IN-1 works perfect with the FORM-SEARCH-ORDER for Digital Elements. For example, if I enter OA$LIB:ADMIN in the field FRMLIB in PROFIL, the search-order is correct (...,OA$LIB:SITEADMIN,OA$LIB:ADMIN,...) . Now there is the new feature to create our own applications an areas. I have a application called ASS. All my elements i moved to the base area. What shall I do now with the user's FORM_SEARCH_ORDER if i put some elements to the site-area? Then I will have 2 Formlibraries. I don't like to use the function GET OA$FORM_SEARCH_ORDER = ... And putting ASS$LIB:SITEASS,ASS$LIB:ASS in the field FRMLIB is not nice too. I tried to define a logical for both libraries. ALL-IN-1 does not handle it. Do you have any solution? Ursi

|     The usual solution to this is to open the libraries at run-time.
    
    You could:
    
    1. Provide an OAINI.SCP in OA$LIB: which opens them (problem with this
    is that a user's own OAINI.SCP would over-ride this, but if your users
    have no access to DCL and no technical knowledge this isn't a problem).
    
    Or
    
    2. Modify the menu from which your application is called to open the
    library before going into your application (this is just what we now do
    for Administration -- see the ADM option on form DEFAULT). You could
    set a local symbol to remember that you've already opened the library,
    although in fact OA$FLO_OPEN_LIB won't open a library that is already
    open.
