COMMIT FROM OPEN FORM

Question

I'm using Developer suite 9i and i've created a form on which I have several buttons that when pressed it "Open_forms, activate) a particular form that selects and inserts data into the form based on a global variable. This Opened form goes against a separate table but the inserted data is mostly inserted into the form from the original form that is still open. The problem is, when I use "commit_form" on the "Open form", it says saved, but then when I exit the form, it says it couldn't insert into the table. It appears to be trying to insert data from the original form into it's tables also. This I don't want or need to happen. Any clue???
Thanks
Steven

Hi,
can u more clearly explain ur problem. whati understand is that u are opening a form from another form. on the opened form u r saving some data. But, after that u r not able to put ur problem properly. So, plz mention more clearly.
One thing u keep in mind that when u commit through the opened form by using OPEN_FORM Built in then commit will take place in both forms i.e. the form which is being called and the form which is calling other form. To avoide this functionality u should use NEW_SESSION parameter in OPEN_FORM or use CALL_FORM instead.
Hoping that u reply back ur problem.
