[Quoted] Does anyone have suggestions to implement 'a search and populate' feature in Forms 4.5, i.e.: as soon as user begins typing data into a non-base field, Forms should start searching the database for a the best matching value, populate the non-base field and refining its search while user continues entering data.

I got some feedback on my question on validation, post-query triggers and
record_status, but I still can not see how to make Forms NOT to set the
record status to 'CHANGED' if a
base table item becomes overwritten with the same value.
I don't see the need for setting the record status to 'CHANGED', if
there is no change.
