What's wrong with creating a very wide button and putting the link text on it and then when the user presses it, voila, the button runs?

If you want to, you could try using the when-mouse-click or when-mouse-double-click triggers on a standard text field.

What is the 'link text' and how do we write triggers on text fields.

'Link text' are the words that you can put on a button using the Set_Item_Property command Label option.

To put a trigger on an item open the Form Builder on the item in question, highlight the word 'triggers',press the green '+' sign on the left side menu, and select the trigger to be added.

Sorry. I can't be any more detailed than I have been. Please get the Form demonstration tutorial from the OTN website and work your way through it.

Go to the link as specified in the 'sticky' at the beginning of this forum http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/index.html then select the Documentation Resource and either get something from that page or go to the 'Previous Releases' links. The manuals I use most often are Part Numbers A66593_02 and A50994_2

Hi,
Here is a program demonstrating the steps to submit a report via form.

:parameter.req_id :=
FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST (
:blockname.appsname,
:blockname.program,
:blockname.description,
:blockname.start_time,
:blockname.sub_req = ’Y’,
123, NAME_IN(’ORDERS.ORDER_ID’), ’abc’,
chr(0), ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’,
’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’,
’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’,
’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’,
’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’,
’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’,
’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’,
’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’,
’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’,
’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’, ’’);
IF arameter.req_id = 0 THEN
FND_MESSAGE.RETRIEVE;
FND_MESSAGE.ERROR;
ELSE
IF :SYSTEM.FORM_STATUS != ’CHANGED’ THEN
IF app_form.quietcommit THEN
/*form commits without asking user to save changes*/
fnd_message.set_name(’SQLGL’,
’GL_REQUEST_SUBMITTED’);
fnd_message.set_TOKEN(’REQUEST_ID’,
TO_CHAR(:PARAMETER.REQ_ID), FALSE);
fnd_message.show;
ELSE
fnd_message.set_name(’FND’,
db_trigger
Example 2
Example 3
Example 4
21 – 35 PL/SQL APIs for Concurrent Processing
’CONC–REQUEST SUBMISSION FAILED’);
fnd_message.error;
END IF;
ELSE
DO_KEY(’COMMIT_FORM’);
IF :SYSTEM.FORM_STATUS != ’CHANGED’ THEN
/*commit was successful*/
fnd_message.set_name(’SQLGL’,
’GL_REQUEST_SUBMITTED’);
fnd_message.set_TOKEN(’REQUEST_ID’,
TO_CHAR(:PARAMETER.REQ_ID), FALSE);
fnd_message.show;
END IF;
END IF;
END IF;

chr(0) means the end of listing parameters. No compiling errors will be shown but form runs with errors if chr(0) is not included.
