Exit Form from PRE_FORM Trigger

[Quoted] [Quoted] I have a PRE-FORM trigger that checks permissions by interrogating the user_role_privs view. If the user has no appropriate role assigned, I get an exception and the FORM terminates. I am now handling the exception so that I may present an appropriate error message to the user. However, this results in the application continuing, since the exception is handled. I want to include a statement in the exception section to forcibly terminate the application. Attempts to user EXIT_FORM result in a FRM-40737 error, illegal restricted procedure in trigger. Apparently I can't exit from within PRE-FORM. Does anyone have any suggestions for terminating the application? I don't want to do it from within the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger, because it results in the FORM being displayed, which contains a Menu that includes sensitive information.

Any suggestions?????

TIA Ed Jennings
