Hi,

I designed one form such that, when i enter emp_code and clicked on ok button, I should get all the details corresponding to that code.
if there is no data corresponding to that code means i should get an message as 'NO ENTRY MADE FOR THIS EMPLOYEE';
I wrote the following code in the when button pressed trigger

DECLARE
BEGIN
go_block('M_AUTHORITY') ;
set_block_property( 'M_AUTHORITY' ,DEFAULT_WHERE, ' WHERE emp_code = ' || '''' || :m_authority.emp_code || '''' ) ;
execute_query;
set_block_property('M_AUTHORITY', DEFAULT_WHERE, '');

But I am getting an alert 'Do U Want To Save The Changes',when i click on the button, though no changes made.
when no data is availale also the same message i am getting.

In order to get'no entry made.......'message where i have to write the code,if no data is found corresponding to that emp_code.

please help me to solve this problem.

But, changes have been made ... once you've entered EMP_CODE into an item, Forms considered this record changed.

However, why are you reinventing the wheel? Forms has developed querying ages ago and it works just fine:
- press ENTER_QUERY
- enter value into the "emp_code" item
- press EXECUTE_QUERY

Nothing more, nothing less. No coding at all.

You just put "clear_block (no_validate)" after go_block like:


DECLARE
BEGIN
go_block('M_AUTHORITY') ;
clear_block (no_validate);
set_block_property( 'M_AUTHORITY' ,DEFAULT_WHERE, ' WHERE emp_code = ' || '''' || :m_authority.emp_code || '''' ) ;
execute_query;
set_block_property('M_AUTHORITY', DEFAULT_WHERE, '');

But, CLEAR_BLOCK will also invoke "Do you want to save changes" message ...

Besides, once the block is cleared, ":m_authority.emp_code" will be empty and DEFAULT_WHERE will not do what it is supposed to.

Then don't use a database item. make your field a non-database item and then Forms won't mind if you change it.

Assign the value from the displayed non-database item to the not displayed database item in the When-Validate-Item trigger of the displayed non-database item.
