Hi
I have two block namely block-A, Block -B

Block A data queried from a view (it have 10 columns).

Block b (it have 5 columns all columns are same in block A column)

When i query of block - A i have to receive the same copy in Block B too.

How to achieve this.

Base block B on the same view as block A (it will have less columns). Execute query (both blocks should have the same WHERE clause, block B's set by SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY, based on block A's LAST_QUERY value).

Block A From Based on View A

But Block B from Based on Another table.

Moreover I am getting data through execute_query from Block A and i want to insert into block B.

Two options I can think of.

The first one is to loop through all records of block A and put them into block B.

Another one is to use LAST_QUERY and insert data from a view into a table

insert into table_b 
  select col1, col2, ..., col5
  from view_a
  where <block A's LAST_QUERY goes in here>

and query block B.

By the way, what is the problem you are trying to solve? Perhaps there's an easier way to do that?

Thanks First,

I thought the same idea, I don't want that.

My idea is that a form want to load the data from a view based block to table based block with executing two times (on Add option) . In modify case the table based block will open and modify the data.

Nothing but i need the copy of a block to another on single execution.

Not really sure what you mean by that.
Never the less, Littlefoot's 2 options are the only ways available.

Perhaps in the 'when-new-block-instance' you could use the 'where' information from block A to perform a manual 'insert' statement in the table of block B, modify the 'where' for block B and then do an 'execute_query'.
