Why are you reinventing the wheel? Forms' built-in querying functionality already supports wildcard searches (and many more). Omit "master" block. In "details" block, press <enter query>, enter search criteria into any item (or more), press <execute query>.

Anyway, I didn't quite understand how will you distinguish which item should contain "Dev%", as there's only one text item in "master" block? Why "deptname"? Why not "ename", for example?

Set your detail block's where clause property as
dept_name like :text_box

In when-button-pressed trigger

go_block(detail block);
clear_block;
execute_query;
