I think the Enter_Query command is as far as the trigger will go because at that point, control is transferred from the running pl/sql trigger to the user. But the go_item may execute after the user does the Execute Query--I am not sure.

Try starting a timer before you Enter_Query, and do the go_item in the When-Timer-Expired trigger.
