Hi Wim,

the problem is, that with each enter-query-mode oracle creates an internal new "shell". In this shell first fires a when-new-record-instance. In this trigger you have to include your source!

Sourcecode:

BEGIN
... do something...
... write your actual item into a global-variable... do_key ('enter-query');

      NEW-SHELL       END OF NEW-SHELL
  ... erase your global-variable ...
  ... next step in your outer-block...
END; In the NEW-SHELL you see a WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE firing. You have to write a little code for that trigger :

BEGIN
IF :system.mode = 'ENTER-QUERY' THEN

    ...your code...
    ...read your item from the global-variable and do a go_item () ! ...
    ...your code...

  END IF;
END; Have a nice day
