Oracle Forms 6i problems

We have the following Oracle products installed:
database 9i + Application Server 6i in a Windows 2000 server.
Developer Suite 6i on developer machines (XP).

I am having a problem on the Form builder:
In the event of opening Form B from Form A, if the Form B is new then it opens fine, but if that form is modified, then Form A opens the old copy (not the modified) of Form B.

After I build the forms on the client, I am having problems after deployment:
1. The cursor does not show in the data block until I refresh the form.
2. On a table view data block, the navigation between records are only possible by the keyboard, not by the mouse.
3. Difficulty in getting the focus from one data block to the other on the same form or canvas.

Is there any patch from Oracle to fix these?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Rushdi

I think you have to more play around form and block properties. Sometime form does not overwrite the modfied version correcly or compiled it becuase of some problem in the old version, first remove the old compiled version then re-compile it.
