Hi,

You can use global variables and assign them values when you save current record. And when you insert another record you can compare this with global variable. You can use ON-COMMIT trigger at form level.

Also you can get last record by writing Select Query from database and compare current record's attributes.

Regards

Danish.

I have another question related with last one.please help me about it.

i want to insert some records in table by form interface,

and i dont want to save it record by record,i want to insert some record and at last i want to save it to insert on that table.

though when i still input data to records ,wanna check current record field with previous ones.i mean may be some untidy data i inputed in last ones,so how can i find the right place of current record data in inputed record to compare fields of it with last and next one?

Regards.

I suggest using a non-database block and not global values. The non-database block would have items that match those in your database block and by using a post-record trigger on your database block you would populate those items before going to the next record.

You would then be able to compare the new database record against its predecessor by comparing an item against its matching item in the non-database block.

I do not like your design philosophy and recommend that you reconsider it.
