Identifies a block as a transactional control block; that is, a non-database block that Oracle Forms should manage as a transactional block. This property is included for applications that will run against non-ORACLE data sources, and that will include transactional triggers. If your application will run against ORACLE, leave this property set to No.
When you create a non-ORACLE data source application, you are essentially simulating the functionality of a data block by creating a transactional control block. Such a block is a control block because its base table is not specified at design time (the Base Table block property is NULL), but it is transactional because there are transactional triggers present that cause it to function as if it were a data block.
