Setting aplicattion name in .pll

Question

Dear proffesionals,
what's the best way to set Aplication name at runtime - what is the practice which is use in your team ?
I tried to create procedure in pll as follows (username and conn string are useful when users sent etc. print screen):
PROCEDURE set_app_name IS
     vc_conn_string            VARCHAR2(1000);  -- used for creating parameter form
     vc_conn_user              VARCHAR2(100);   -- used for creating parameter form
     vc_conn_user_string      VARCHAR2(100);   -- used for creating parameter form
     curform                       VARCHAR2(40);
     blkname                      VARCHAR2(40);
begin
     curform := :System.Current_Form; --cannot use :system variables !!!
     blkname := Get_Form_Property(curform,FIRST_BLOCK);
     vc_conn_string:=get_application_property(connect_string);
     vc_conn_user:=get_application_property(username);
     vc_conn_user_string:=vc_conn_user||'@'||vc_conn_string;
     set_window_property ('window0',Title,vc_conn_user_string);
     set_window_property (forms_mdi_window,title,'My application');
        --set_window_property (forms_mdi_window,title,'My application name ');
END;When try to compile, i got this error:
PL/SQL ERROR 49 at line 8, column 13
bad bind variable.... ''So, how to find out current form name ?
Thanks in advance,
Adnan

Sorry, i don't understand how that function could help me - as i said before, i couldn't use global or system variables in .pll functions or procedures....Of course you can...with the help of the name_in built in:
curform := name_in('System.Current_Form');
