Hi to All,

I have just begun to create forms with the 'Forms Builder 6i'.

It is possible associate to every field a key that open a classic help of windows (hlp or chm), or better a specified section of help?

If yes, how can I perform this ?

Best Regards

You can create a form level trigger that can associated with a particular function key as the 'invoke help facility' key. In the trigger you use 'system.current_form', 'system.current_block', 'sysmte.current_item' to determine the field in which you are currently working. Then do a 'host' command to invoke the help system, remember to pass these three parmeters as the key to the help file internal location. This can be build using Oracle Designer.

Look at http://www.orafaq.com/forum/m/143112/67467/?srch=chm#msg_143112 and http://www.orafaq.com/forum/m/142643/67467/?srch=chm#msg_142643
