Hi every One...
I have updated a table from the form and written a update statement ON block level trigger ON-UPDATE

"UPDATE_RECORD;
update employees set hiredate=to_date(:EMP.TXT_DATE,'dd-MON-yyyy')
where employees.empno=:emp.empno;
COMMIT_FORM;"

Here employees is my table and emp is my block
I am a new user of Oracle 10g.
Can any one help me.......

Why are you updating it that way? It seems that all information you need is in a form (i.e. :EMP.TXT_DATE => EMPLOYEES.HIREDATE for EMPLOYEES.EMPNO = :EMP.EMPNO). I guess that default Forms processing is capable to update that value, if items belong to a database block.

Forms says that there are no changes to be saved (as nothing has changed in a block). You might try to use STANDARD.COMMIT (instead of COMMIT_FORM). Also, search the board, as such a question has already been discussed many times.

No you don't need to update it that way.
Get rid of the on-update trigger.
Put a hiredate item in your block if there isn't one already (it doesn't have to be on the canvas).
Modify it from the when-validate-item triggers on the 7 items.

Better yet, just get rid of the 7 items and have users alter hire_date directly.
Why 7 items for 1 date?

What did you put in the when-validate-item triggers?
And you might want to consider using a calender LOV (search this forum) rather than doing what you are doing.

SCOTT_FORM.JPG is really a unique example of how to enter date values. What an idea!
