The easiest way to it is by building your DataBlock based on a table from your database. You can choose wich fields you want to work with and how do you want them to work and look like (TextItem, List-Item, etc).
Forms itself will provide you with the functionality that you require to Insert, Update, Query and Delete records to and from your database without even having to code it, forms will take care of the actual job of sending the values of your fields to the database.

All you'll have to worry about is the behavior of each item and the Form itself, writing your validations etc, etc.

Hope this helps!

step1: we have enter the table name in the form.
step2: After table name is entered,very next step is we have add the no of columns to the table which was created in step1 through the using Forms developer.
step 3: to the added columns ,we have assign the data types ie is enter the data types for each column in the form itself by using text item.

step 4: after building up the table with our own columns and its data types .

I believe you are trying to create a form through which you can create an Oracle table.

To do that you need to get the information associated with the table definition (column name, type, precision, etc). Then execute the statement. For the latter look at 'forms_ddl', it has examples.
