Hi,

I have a 3 page form with 2 blocks, b1 (master) and b2 (detail). As there are alot of fields in b2 I have split the block into two pop-up pages (pages 2 & 3) and put a static field in page 2 with the remaining fields being in a scrollable page 3.

The problem is that Pages 2 & 3 only get shown on the screen when b2 becomes active. What I want is for pages 2 & 3 to display when the form is first run. I have tried a pre-block trigger on b1 which does :-

show_page(2);
show_page(3);
synchronize;

This displays the pages momentarily and then wipes them straight back out again and only shows page 1 until b2 is entered.

Is it possible to force pages 2 & 3 to display all the time ?

Thanks in advance
