Oracle Forms

HI,

*1.*
I want to create directories & files in my C:\tmp, but I want try to run from my form.

For example, I have a form. In my form, have a button 'Create File'. When I click that button, it will create a folder/file in my C:\tmp, not in AS. My OS pc is Win XP, AS is Unix, Oracle Forms [32 Bit] Version 9.0.2.12.2 (Production).

Is it possible to do that? Or it totally impossible? I've tried using client_host, host, & webutil_file.create_directory, but all failed.
When I use client_host & webutil_file.create_directory, error during compile.

identifier 'client_host' must be declared.
identifier webutil_file.create_directory' must be declared.

Or am I forgot something about the settings?

I know that:
HOST is executed on the App Server
CLIENT_HOST Is executed on the client

but I really don't know the concept how & where to apply. I'm really new to all these things.

*2.*
Lastly, my question: Is it allow me to create folder in AS? That means I need access privilege/rights to create,edit,delete files/folders or not ? Because when I try to create folder in AS using host command, it failed.
Is this problem related to rights on AS? The error appeared was +302000: non-ORACLE exception.+

Can anyone help or clarify to me?



Thanks,

Luthfi
