Hii all

I have a problem in my form

i have a form that are containing mandatory fields "required"
i want to check that those fields are not null
before commit
I don't want to make the item in its property pallete
required is set to yes

because i don't want force the user to enter data immediatly when key on it so that he cannot get out from those fields

So i made this code in the KEY-COMMIT

IF (:CONTACTPERSON IS NULL) THEN
MESSAGE ('REQUIRED FIELDS ARE NULLS');
MESSAGE ('REQUIRED FIELDS ARE NULLS');
RAISE FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;
END IF;


THAT CODE RESULTS IS :
THE MESSAGE IS SHOWN SEVERAL TIMES
WHEN EXIT THE FORM IT DOESNOT PREVIEW A CONFIRMATION ASK
OF "CLOSE THE FORM" (YES/NO)



Can anyone help me on this issue


Thanks for everyone helped and helping me

use an alert, it is much better than message...

if :block.item is not null then
commit_form;
else
if show('ALERT') = alert_button1 then
go_block('BLOCK');
end if;
end if;

WHEN EXIT THE FORM IT DOESNOT PREVIEW A CONFIRMATION ASK
OF "CLOSE THE FORM" (YES/NO)

Against which item have you placed the 'key-commit' trigger? Do you have more than one of them?

HI

i think you are not showing complete code
because it would happen due to your previous commands
or if you have set item = not null in database

any one cannot tell you approperiate answer until you show the complete code which is running on key-commit trigger.

i hope you will never mind.
