Forms 4.5: How to cancel ENTER_QUERY-Mode in Menu

Hi !

I have a weird problem. All my buttons in my form should have the functionality to function in every situation. E.g., my 'exit'-button should should exit no matter if the form is in enter_query-mode. No problem so far, thanks to the following code:

IF (:SYTEM.MODE = 'ENTER_QUERY') THEN
        EXIT_FORM; -- cancel enter_query
END IF
...

This works great, but in Menus this doesnt work, because Exit_form cancels the query but finishes also execution of the menu code.

I tried putting the Exit_form into a form trigger and call it from the menu, same result.

So, how do I do this ? It can't be true I have to put an alert 'Cant exit form when in enter-query mode' in my exit-menu !!!

[Quoted] Is there another way to leave enter_query mode than exit_form ???

Many thanks, this is a real hard one,
