Hello,
Why do you need ANOTHER trigger to populate the DNAME and LOC field after selecting the DEPTNO? You said you want the population automatic once you have chosen your DEPTNO from the LOV, so you can have the other fields populated inside the SAME trigger (ex: WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED) that called the LOV.
I have used the following code:
declare
lov_return boolean;
begin
lov_return := show_lov('your LOV NAME deptno');
IF lov_return THEN
:blockName.DEPTNO := :parameter.LOV_DEPTNO; -- (U can create a parameter to store the LOV return)
***** HERE YOU CAN HAVE THE REST OF YOUR CODE FOR POPULATING THE OTHER ITEMS *****
END IF;
Hope this helps,
Baz
