GETTING FORM OUT OF QUERY MODE (URGENT)

Question

I have a form which start in Query mode, user enter in say employee ID. If that employee exists than user bring its record else create a new record.
What I did is start in query mode, when user enter employee ID, I check to see if record exist, if it does then I just use EXECUTE_QUERY. Now I don't know what to do for new record. If I use CREATE_RECORD that doesn't work because form is in query mode. How can I make form come out of query mode programmically?
I am using Form 5. Trigger I am using is KEY_NEXT_ITEM in Employee ID field.
Need urgent reply
Thanks

Well Faisal, I have tried this code on the EMP table in the user Scott. I think it will solve your problem
use the key-next-item trigger
declare
empid emp.empno%type;
begin
select empno into empid
from emp
where empno = :empno;
clear_block(no_validate);
set_block_property('emp', default_where, 'empno=' | | empid);
execute_query;
set_block_property('emp', default_where, '');
next_item;
exception
when no_data_found then
next_item;
end;
