[Quoted] I have 2 forms and added a button to navigate from one form to the other to go to the 2nd form. If the 2nd form is already open, I navigate to it using [Quoted] GO_FORM and when it's not already open, I open it using OPEN_FORM. When going to the second form I am also passing a global variable and executing a [Quoted] query to display the record matching the global variable. The problem I have is that when the 2nd form is already open I get a message saying "This function cannot be performed here". This seems to happen because of the EXECUTE_QUERY built-in I used in the WHEN-WINDOW-ACTIVATED trigger on the 2nd form but not sure. Here is an example of my code and the various triggers. If you know of another way to do this I would also welcome your suggestions:

1st Form:
WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED TRIGGER:
:global.id := :emp_id;
IF ID_NULL(FIND_FORM('modulename')) THEN
OPEN_FORM('filename');
ELSE
GO_FORM('modulename');
END IF:
2nd Form:
PRE-QUERY TRIGGER (block level)
:item := :global.id;
WHEN-WINDOW-ACTIVATED EXECUTE-QUERY; Thanks!
