Re: Forms 4.5 highlighting items

Tracey,

Have a look at Display_Item, perhaps called in Pre-Text-Item and Post-Text-Item triggers.
Also, your problem with Set_Item_Property might be associated with where you call the Set_Item - if already in the record then it may be too late. The commit process navigates out of the block and back again, thus activating the Set_Item.
Rather than Set_Item, have you considered presetting Current Record Attribute in the Property Sheet?
