Create LOV based on view with problem - repost

Question

Hi,
I have the following scenario:
1. Create a view based on several tables from a remote database using db link.
2. Create a LOV based on the created view. In the LOV, I have the where clause
" where user_name = portal30.wwctx_api.get_user" because I only want individual
portal user to see his/her own choices.
However, when I try to test the LOV, it just hangs.
3. If I create a table based on the created view, and create a LOV based on the newly
created table, also use the same where clause -
"where user_name = portal30.wwctx_api.get_user". The LOV returns correctly.
Why is this happens? And what can I do to make the Lov works from a view instead of table?
Thanks;
Kelly.

Hi Erwin,
I have a similar situation.
Tabular form based on a view. The view contains a table in a another instance via dblink and everything works fine.
The only one difference between my and your view is that my "instead of" view is only for UPDATE. You must to have "intead of" trigger only for UPDATE. Insert and delete works fine withoust "instead of" trigger.
So, try to delete INSERT and DELETE words from your "INSTEADOFBUBA" trigger.
hope it helps,
