Thanks for reply

Up and Down are regarding block level.
This is like previous_record or next_record.

And i am not getting diff between commit and commit_form.

Commit is a command for committing all the transactions that you have performed.

Commit_form is a forms built-in function to save the data(which is posted during form runtime session) to the database.

Up is another forms built-in function for navigating to the instance of the current item in the record with the next lowest seq.no.

Where as Down function consides the next highest seq.no.

Many people assume that 'commit' will save changes that have been made to the database even when no changes can be detected in the form. This is an incorrect assumption. Oracle Forms treats 'commit' as 'form_commit' whereby the 'saving' is only done if the form thinks there has been changes. To force a 'save' use 'standard.commit' as this will bypass the form_status test.
