I'm new to Developer
I have created a form by using Block,Form wizard
employee1 is a name of my datablock that is linked to EMPLOYEE table
employee_id, name and position are my text items on the form
====================================
The update button has been added (PL/SQL)
==========================================
update employee
set
name = :employee1.name
where
employee_id = :employee1.employee_id
;
==================================
On runtime
The value "123" is put into Employee_id field for testing
After I click the update button
The error happens like "cannot insert the record"..
when i press shift -f1
it shows error of my sql command like
INSERT INTO EMPLOYEE(POSITION,NAME,EMPLOYEE_ID) VALUES (:1,:2,:3)
I'm wondering that The code in my pl/sql is exactly
update as mentioned but ... how it turns to be insert into ????
It seems that this query has overided my written query at all.
Is there anyone who can clarify this problem to me??
Thank you very much

why don't you try updating the name instead?
update employee
set
name = nvl(:employee1.name,'~')
where
employee_id = :employee1.employee_id;
then test by inserting something like "sokeh" instead of numeric "123".
I don't see why this won't work.

hi neena,
what ever u type in the text items of base table block will be treated as new items and forms will try to insert those records into the base table. for this what u can do is, use the toolbars
enter-query option, click on it, enter what ever value u want to query (for example employee id 123 in employee id text item) and use execute-query button. this will fetch records for employee 123. now u can update whatever value u want and say save. this will work for u, no need to write update statement.
bye
ram
