Hi,

I have 2 blocks ,Block A and Block B. Block A is visible while the form gets opened. When i do some operations, Block B is visible. Now i have a button from which i am calling another form. To this i am passing values of both blocks.

for this i have used this piece of code. Is there any direct functionality of form to identify as to which block is present in the form.

IF :CITATION_AMA_FORMAT.CITATION_CODE IS NULL THEN
:PARAMETER.V_AMA_CITATION_FROM:=:CITATION_AMA_FORMAT_FROM.CITATION_CODE;
MESSAGE(:CITATION_AMA_FORMAT_FROM.AMA_FORMATTED_CITATION);
:PARAMETER.V_AMA_CITATION:='';
web.show_document('http://www.msn.com/','_blank');
GO_BLOCK('CITATION_AMA_FORMAT_FROM');
ELSE
:PARAMETER.V_AMA_CITATION:=:CITATION_AMA_FORMAT.CITATION_CODE;
MESSAGE(:CITATION_AMA_FORMAT.AMA_FORMATTED_CITATION);
:PARAMETER.V_AMA_CITATION:='';
web.show_document('http://www.google.com/','_blank');
GO_BLOCK('CITATION_AMA_FORMAT');
-- EXECUTE_QUERY;
END IF;

Now the problem i am facing is that when i first move to first block it will be ok. Then i call the second block then also it is ok. But when i again call the first block and press the button it is taking the second block's value.
Kindly help me Embarassed

How will knowing which block is in the form help you? Don't you want to know which block/item is currently being displayed?

You don't need to know which block is in a form. You need to know which block is currently selected. There is a big difference. Look at the 'system.' system variables.
