If I understood you correctly, this is NOT a data block, but control block, which get populated manually. Right? Then you update certain items in several records, press a button and want to save (save? Insert or update?) only changed records.

If so, how do you do that? Looping through all block records? In that case, you'll have to create additional item (a checkbox, for example) which will indicate modified records so that they could be recognized.

However, why don't you use an ordinary data block? It would save you a lot of time and effort. If you didn't know, a "parameter value" you have mentioned, which decides which records are to be fetched, can be used in the DEFAULT_WHERE block's property (and can be set by the SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY built-in).

Although, I may be completely wrong, failing to understand the question.

Just use the standard features of Oracle Forms, use the items of the 'parameters' block in the 'default_where' of your data block and Forms will handle the saving of modified records for you.

Do not try to program Oracle Forms as you would VB. Just use the default behaviour and make as few changes as are absolutely necessary.
