Hi,

        As far as my knowledge goes
        1. Use a edit_field procedure in a pre-form trigger so that the field
        is displayed in that area, I have not tried this but it can be done.
        2. Simulate a multi record block with control fields.  A example of
        similar problem is explained in Oracle Forms Developers companion by
        Steve Muench.  i

        Let me know if you have any problem.

Regards
Srini Kumar
