Hi,

Do any one of you know how to override a built-in procedure with a user-defined procedure?

Example:
Whenever i call 'message(some_string)', it should call a procedure 'meesage()' that i have defined but not the forms6i built-in procedure 'message()'.

Right now, iam able to create a procedure called 'message()' with my own definition and successfully compile it also, but this is not called when executed, but the built in 'message()' procedure is called.

Please pour in your thoughts.

Thanks,
Niranjan

I think it inadvisable to create an object with the same name as an Oracle object.

That having been said, where did you create this 'message' procedure - in the form, in a form library, or in the database?
