Hi...
Y work in convert my FMB files to XML files
First : Execute the command FORMS2XML , in my instalation of Windows this file call IFXMLSG90.exe
In DOS :
c:\> ifxmlsg90 overwrite=yes ejemplo.fmb
Oracle 9i Forms XML Schema Generator
Copyright© Oracle Corporation 2001. All rigths reserved
Forms XML Schema saved as Forms90.xsd
But? , the files not generated with the name ejemplo , and the extension not XML , is XSD.
I think , the file XSD not a XML format but yes XML FORMAT :
Example
c:\> type Forms90.xsd|more
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'UTF-8'?>
<schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:tns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/Forms" targetNamespace="http://xmlns.oracle.com/Forms">

<element name="ObjectLibrary" type="tns:ObjectLibrary"/>
<element name="ObjectLibraryTab" type="tns:ObjectLibraryTab"/>

It is XML Format !!!
Second , i modified this file and it validate with the command XMLVALIDATOR, in windows this file call ifxmlv90.
Example in DOS :
c:\> ifxmlv90 Forms90.xsd
But, raise this error :
Oracle9i Forms XML Validator
Copyright(c) Oracle Corporation 2001. All rights reserved.
file:/C://forms90.xsd<Line 2, Column 140>: XSD-2038: (Error) Can not find definition for element 'schema'
Invalid XML - file forms90.xsd does not validate against Forms XML Schema:
Can not find definition for element 'schema'
Q1 : How i create a valid XML file?
Q2 : What it is a file XSD?
Q3 : I not have a file FORMS2XML , Where it is?
Thank you
