I'm rather new to Forms development an have a problem concerning input validation for detail records in a 2 block master-detail form which I just can't seem to find a solution for. So here goes:

A 2 block master-detail form (orginally generated using Designer/2000; the detail form is an interesection table, so its fields are not shown and are populated through an LOV from a lookup detailed table usage), the master block only shows a single record at a time and allows for query, insert, update and delete; the detail block also allows for query, insert, update and delete but shows 6 records at a time (populated through LOV). Now what I want to accomplish is that a newly created master record cannot be saved without there also being at least one related detail record being created. What's the best approach to take here? Any help is appreciated.
