To define that a resource bundle is to be used within a dbForms application, the resource bundle root name must be specified in the web.xml deployment descriptor (associated to the dbForms config servlet):

      <web-app>
        <!--=========== DbForms Configuration Servlet ===========-->
        
      <servlet>
            <servlet-name>org.dbforms.ConfigServlet</servlet-name>
            <servlet-class>org.dbforms.ConfigServlet</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
                    <param-name>log4j.configuration</param-name>
                    <param-value>log4j.properties</param-value>
    </init-param>
                
      <init-param>
                    <param-name>
      resourceBundle</param-name>
                    <param-value>
      ApplicationResources</param-value>
    
      </init-param>
            <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
  </servlet>
