Hi!,
We have a web-based ERP system with Oracle 9i & forms 6i. I am developing a form in which I want to check the uniqness of a field say EMPID on block level(multiple record block).

I have already written a code which checks the uniqness by nevigating the block in a loop but I wanted to know if any easy method (inbuilt??) available for this.

Thanks
Mayank

Don't cross-post (and yes, I agree, this question belongs to Forms forum; it is my problem that I read the OraFAQ forum bottom-up).

[EDIT] Corrected the wrong URL.

well i think you are trying to ask how to check duplication in the values entered in the multiple record in one go....if so then set the primary key propertry of the field to yes. and the problem solved. no need to write the code.
