That is almost 100% correct. If you have followed all of the rules that were not necessarily enforced since Version 3.0, then yes it should work.
But there are commands that were de-supported but still worked in 6i and 9i. These commands don't work period in 10g/11g. You need to find them all and replace them.
There are other things that stop working. For instance DO_KEY on a user defined Trigger. Or another is a DO_KEY on a BLOCK_MENU.
If you need further assistance in identifying the commands, you can search OTN, Metalink, Google ... or you could use a tool like PITSS.con, which is explained at www.pitssamerica.com.
There is a lot of things that need to happen to Migrate / Upgrade / Convert your Oracle Forms and Reports. People who claim that Oracle's statement that you can simply re-compile any 6i or 9i in 10g and it will work are clearly mis-informed. This statement is based on the premise that you were not using any de-supported but still working commands. There happens to be hundreds of commands depending on if you are in 6i or 9i.
