Question if Oracle Developer Forms

| Hello,
Can anyone explain difference between Same Record and Change Record navigation style in a data block? I just don't see a difference when testing it out and find anything to explain in better detail.
thank you. | |

| Hi Bhamoo,
I found the following in detail on TechNet:
"Same Record: The default navigation style. A Next Item operation from the block's last navigable item moves the input focus to the first navigable item in the block, in that same record.
Change Record: A Next Item operation from the block's last navigable item moves the input focus to the first navigable item in the block, in the next record. If the current record is the last record in the block and there is no open query, Oracle Forms creates a new record. If there is an open query in the block (the block contains queried records), Oracle Forms retrieves additional records as needed. "
In other words:
With "same record" the input focus circles around from the last item to the first one in the same record, "change record" will jump to the next available record in the scope or will create a new one. 
Hope this helps, | |
