I have a from consisting of a master block & then a detail block, of which the detail block is of a 5 row tabular format. The 1st column is for employee no. & the user can enter the value via 3 methods.
1) manually
2) LOV - Via edit/display list from the default forms toolbar.
3) LOV - via a button on the form.
For method 1 & 2 once the 4 digit figure has been entered the cursor moves to the next column automatically, but for method 3 the value is entered into the column, but then the cursor move from the column, but not to the next column, but to ? i think the LOV button that was originally press. Any ideas why & how i can solve this strange problem?
Thanks in advance.

hi CreativePresence !!!
u should explicitly issue
GO_ITEM('TEXT_ITEM_NAME');
in the WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger of your button so that when the user selects a value from LOV the flow will automatically go to the next item as in case of your methods 1 & 2.
your WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger code should look something like this.
declare
val boolean;
begin
val := show_lov('LOV_NAME');
if val then
go_item('next_item');
end if;
end;
all the best.
best regards,
avinash pai
