- SQL*FORMS is a program included with Oracle that allows one to generate
- forms that are based on database tables. This is most useful in develop-
- ing input and query forms for people that don't know or want to know how
- to use SQL at the database level. It also has capabilities for improving
- data integrity. You can also performany number tasks based on certain
- "events", like moving to a particular field, etc.
