What I intend to do is invoke form B from form A with OPEN_FORM command and select certain values in B which in turn get added to a programatically created record group.Upon exiting form B, I want to populate form A with the selected values from the same record group(through a when_button_pressed trigger).But the problem here is the record group which I created in invoked form B is not identified in form A.I am using the same session for form B.I prefer this method to LOV due to multiple selection being made possible at one time.
Your inputs will be much appreciated.
Thanks
Jay

The Record Group of the form is local to a form.
It cannot be shared among different forms
Now, the solution is to create a DATA PARAMETER in the calling form.
The DATA PARAMETER will contain the query for the LOV.
The DATA PARAMETER name should be same as the
Record Group used for LOV in the called FORM
Pass the DATA PARAMETER while calling the form.
The Record Group of the called form is substitued with the passed parameter and hence is used for LOV.
