Forms 10g - view button

Question

Hi all
I'm doing some work on some standard eBS 12.1. forms, specifically GLXIQACC. There is some code that enables and disables the button.
I've not worked with forms 10g before, and I can't even find where the button is created, never mind what updates it.
Can anyone tell me how to find all the buttons created in a form?
Thanks

You will need to modify the following files: default.env and formsweb.cfg to enable the Forms Runtime Diagnostics (FRD).
formsweb.cfg
Create a new section at the bottom of the file.
[my_frd] -- or title it what ever you want
otherparams=record=collect log=my_frd.txt -- you can name the log file anything you want
envFile=my_frd.env -- again, you can name this file whatever you want
Next, create the my_frd.env file based on the original default.env and make the following changes:
FORMS_TRACE_DIR=C:\DevSuiteHome10g\NETWORK\log
-You can use a directory of your choice ...
Once you have done this, you will need to restart the Forms Services in your application server. Then open a browser and type the URL to your application and add the following to the end of the URL: ?config=my_frd
This will instruct the Forms Services to log all actions in your Forms Session. I prefer to use the separate config for this activity because I don't want it turned on all the time this this allows me to turn it on when ever I need it.
There might be additional steps to enable FRD in the EBS, but this is how you do it in a non-EBS application.
Hope this helps,
