You either didn't commit or - if you did and not error message appeared - you have done that in a different schema.

We seem to be getting confused here, so lets clarify a few points.
1) Is delete_record the only command in your button? and if it isn't can you supply the full code for the button.
2) When you press the button does the record disapear from the canvas?
3) Do you get any messages - either to say the record was deleted or to indicate an error?

Answer those and we'll move on from there.

Hi there.

After deletion of record try to do:
forms_ddl('commit');


and then
go_block('block_name');
execute_query;


U need to refresh that block.

Why would you need to do execute_query after delete_record?

What is wrong with the default 'delete' button in the top toolbar?

Does the record 'disappear' from the block when it is pushed?

forms_ddl('commit');
is crap!! ANYTHING in a 'forms_ddl' forces a 'commit'. If you MUST use your own 'delete' code then use 'standard.commit'.

That'd be because you're not deleting the record from the data block, you're bypassing the datablock entirely and deleting from the table.
If you do it that way you will have to requery the block afterwards.

What happens when you just put delete_record in your button?

Double click shouldn't be necessary. I suspect it thinks it's in a different block to the button.
Try putting
go_item(:system.trigger_item);

immediately before the delete_record command.


As for this:

Are you commiting the change?

EDIT: changed the system variable to a better one
