Hi,

Consider below is a multi record block rows, i want to hide "23". Is it possible using Set_Item_Instance_Property or any other built-in is there in oracle forms to hide a single row field in a multi record block.

11 12 13
21 22 23
31 32 33
. . .

Regards,
Sruesh.V

Set_item_instance_property is used to set properties on an item in a particular row - Read up on it in form builder help.
However I don't believe it'll help you here.

This is a VERY general question with not a lot of detail. I'll take a stab at a solution, but it probably will not be what you want.

In the multi-record block, have the real column not displayed. Have a non database text item (or display item) displayed in place of the column on the canvas. Have a trigger on when-new-item-instance or post-change or when-validate-item that sets the display field to null if the real column = 23.

I'd add the POST-QUERY trigger as well. (I like the idea!)
