Alternatively, you could use global variables (which are not as good as parameters Cookiemonster suggested).

Or, you could even COMMIT changes in Form_A, pass only ID (as a parameter) to Form_B, in PRE-QUERY trigger set ONETIME_WHERE (or DEFAULT_WHERE) block property to

:form_b_block.id := :parameter.id;

and EXECUTE_QUERY which would - from a table - fetch data stored by the Form_A.

Thanks Cookiemaster & littlefoot,

1) I have another question related to this, if suppose i called form2 by using form1. And suppose form2 have any error , doesn it affect to form1 also.

2) and if form2 affected any error then how can i save form1 data. means i want to ask how i protect my form1 data, if anything happens with form2.

Errors in form 2 don't affect form 1, so there's nothing to prevent you saving data in form 1.

If it's a different session then it can't affect form 1.
If it's the same session (and it can be - depends what command you use to call form 2) then it shouldn't affect form 1 because it creates a savepoint when it starts form 2 and an error will cause a rollback to that savepoint.
