Question

I have two tables, HELP_PROBLEMS and HELP_SOLUTIONS.

HELP_PROBLEMS has a number of different fields, including PROBLEM_ID, SOLUTION_ID, PROBLEM_DESC etc.

HELP_SOLUTIONS has just SOLUTION_ID and SOLUTION_DESC.

I’m trying to build form that when you view the edit form of a problem, you can add the solution in a form below it.
In my mind, when I hit the button Add Solution (submit), it creates the new row in HELP_SOLUTIONS, and adds the SOLUTION_ID to the current row in HELP_PROBLEMS. (and update a few other things but trying to keep this as basic as possible).

Is this at all possible? I thought the ‘master form’ might work but I couldn’t seem to sort it out as planned.

Thanks,
C.

Answer 1

You can create a pl/sql block that inserts a value in two different tables.
create a page process and select pl/sql
then try something like

begin

–insert into help_problems
–insert into help_solutions

end;
