Did you check the LOGON built-in?

What does a "new form" mean? A form opened with NEW_FORM or CALL_FORM or OPEN_FORM? If so, it means that it has been called from another form, which also means that you are already connected to the database.

If a "new form" is the very first form you run, which version is it? If client-server (6i), you may include connect string (username/password@database) into the shortcut icon on your desktop. If it is deployed on the web, use NCS.

If I misundestood the question, could you explain it with some more details, please?

OK, so do changes necessary to connect to another database at the same place where you set connection to an existing database.

Now connect to another. I don't know where and how you did that, but I suppose you do (actually, you *should*).
