Hi, Am using Global variables in Oracle forms 6i.

for Example

:Global.v_empno:= :EMP.EMPNO;
:Global.v_ename:= :EMP.ENAME;
....

am writing below code in multiple triggers..

if :DEPT.DEPTNO is not null then
:EMP.EMPNO:= :Global.v_empno;
:EMP.ENAME:=:Global.v_ename;
.....

end if;

So I have to reduce this code...
Can anyone help on this to reduce the code...

What do you mean by "reducing" that code? Reduce how? If you have to set items to those global variables' values, then you have to do that - you can't reduce anything.

Though, you could create procedures: for example, call one of them SET_GLOBALS and put your first code into it. Another one would be USE_GLOBALS and contain your second code. Then you'd just call those procedures in all the triggers (instead of typing the whole IF ... END IF).

Put the code in a procedure, call the procedure from the triggers
