Hi there,

In forms 4.5, you can set block properties for a master block. There are two properties which are very relevant in this context. They are

immediate co-ordination
auto query

By setting immediate -coordination to TRUE, Forms will query all child records for every change in the master record.

You can create RELATIONS to achieve this effect.
