I have a multi records block with two items

Code text_item
discription Display_item (on the basis of code)

When user inserts the data in this block. I want to prevent duplicate entries at the time of entry. I mean in the when-validate-item.

But I m not able to do it, Because I have to use built_ins like first_record, next_record to check the value in other rows, But I can't use these built ins in when validate item.

Is there any other way to solve this issue.

Thanx in Advance

To check duplicate entry use key-next-item because u can't use first_record , last_Record in when_validate_item.

If u have further query contact me at my mail Id.

Bye
