Re: Forms 4.5 Menu Processing...

Vijay,

Adding the 'Enter' built-in ensures the WVI trigger fires, but to determine whether the trigger failed you then need to test whether 'Enter' was successful (ie. had an exception returned to it). Try using the FORM_SUCCESS built-in:

Enter;
IF Form_Success
THEN
  DoSaveAE;
END IF; Have a look at Form_Success and Form_Trigger_Failure in Forms Online Help.
