Re: Oracle Forms 4.5 and KEY-EXIT Trigger

The KEY-EXIT trigger will not fire when canceling a query. When a form is in the query mode, a call to the forms built in exit_form is made to cancel the query. This is not to be confused with KEY-EXIT trigger.

Also note, if you are trying to have the same code called to exit the form, put the code in the KEY-EXIT trigger. Then on your menu or button issue a DO-KEY(exit_form). This will insure the same code being executed whether your end user selects the button, menu or key. As for the window closed issued, my best guess is again issue a DO-KEY(exit_form) on the WHEN-WINDOW-CLOSED trigger.

Hope this was some help.
