What must you do to achieve this?

You have written a When-Validate-Item trigger. You want this trigger to fire even if the form is in
Enter-Query mode. What must you do to achieve this?

A.
Use the following code at the start of the When Validate-Item trigger:
:SYSTEM.mode :=’ENTER-QUERY’;

B.
Use the following code at the start of the When ValidateItem trigger:
:SYSTEM.mode :=’NORMAL’;

C.
Set theFireinEnterQuery Mode property of the When-Validate-Item trigger.

D.
You do not need to do anything, because the default for the When Validate Item trigger is to
fireinEnter-Query mode.

E.
You cannotachieve this, because the When-Validate-Item trigger cannotbe set to fireinEnterQuery mode.

Explanation:
Coding Triggers for Enter-Query Mode
Some triggers that fire when the form is in Normal mode (during data entry and saving) may also

be fired in Enter-Query mode. You need to consider the trigger type and actions in these cases.
“Fire in Enter-Query Mode”Property
To create a trigger that fires in Enter-Query mode, in its Property Palette set the “Fire in EnterQuery Mode”property to Yes. This property determines whether Forms fires a trigger if the
associated event occurs in Enter-Query mode. Not all triggers can do this.See last line in note
below.
By default, the “Fire in Enter-Query Mode”property is set to Yes for triggers that acceptthis. Set it
to No in the Property Palette if you want the trigger to fire only in Normal mode.
Note:
The following triggers may fire in Enter-Query mode:
*Key-* On-Error
* On-Message
* When-triggers,
except:
-When-Database-Record
-When-Image-Activated
-When-New-Block-Instance
-When-New-Form-Instance
-When-Create-Record
-When-Remove-Record
-When-Validate-Record
-When-Validate-Item
