hello every one.
I had my form with 2 blocks( parent and child)and key-commit trigger which checks all the fields are filled and then it commits. The problem is when deleting a record in the child block and click the save button the trigger prohibit the user from saving the changes and a predefined message appears (please fill all fields). please guide me if i should use a different trigger or another trigger for the delete process
another question does key-commit trigger commit after executing the code in the trigger?

"Check" whatever you want in WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD trigger, not in KEY-COMMIT. If you Search the board, you'll find that KEY-COMMIT can be bypassed (and, thus, never executed).

KEY-COMMIT will commit if you put "COMMIT" into it.

How can pre-insert work for deleting? It doesn't fire when you delete.

I used key-commit previously to execute a code to insure all field are filled before saving. However when I delete and then click save to save the deletion process the key-commit trigger fires and a message appear to fill all the fields. so I couldn't delete. when I used preinser instead the trigger checked that field are filled and didn't restrict deleting

If you're checking fields are filled in you should probably just use the required property - that's what it's there for.
Assuming any fields that need to filled on insert also need to be filled on update WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD makes more sense than PRE-INSERT.

Read the form builder help topic on the trigger, and the one titled "About Validation".
You learn that stuff and you'll understand forms better than most people posting here.
