Re: call_form cannot commit an SQL insert statement

do this

in the code where you do your commit. just before you attempt to do it.. do

message(:system.record_status); pause

it probably says 'query'

if that is the case do the following

set_record_property(read help for what to put here. set it to 'changed')

then commit.
