Hi
I am converting an application initially written in Forms 4.5 to Forms 10g. Currently I am facing 2 issues regarding the change in functionality from 4.5 to 10g.
First issue:
There are 5 items in a block and the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger sets one of the items (the third item ITEM3) programmatically to display only and assigns a value to it. There is a WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM in that item (At that point it doesn't fire and this is OK).
When the user navigates from ITEM1 to ITEM2 and then to ITEM4 (because ITEM3 is disabled) the WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM of ITEM3 does not fire immediately. In forms 4.5/6i the trigger was firing and a lot of functionality was built on that behavior.
Is there any way to overcome that issue?
Second issue:
In forms 4.5 it was possible to cancel a long running query (during EXECUTE QUERY) using Control-C. The control C doesn't seem to work in form 10g. Is there any way to force a cancel of a long query in 10g?
Thanks
George T.

Hi
I am getting the same behavior even if I set the item to display only programmaticaly.
I managed to solve my issue by setting the item to INSERT_ALLOWED=False, UPDATE_ALLOWED=false.
In that case the cursor still was visiting the item but I wrote a WNII trigger to escape out of the item.
Thanx
George
