About the Relation Object

You can define a master-detail relation at any time during the form development process. You define a master-detail relation between blocks by creating and setting the properties of a relation object.

A relation is a logical object that specifies the relationship between one master block and one corresponding detail block. In the Object Navigator, the relation object appears under the block that is the master block in the relation.

When you create a relation, Oracle Forms generates the triggers and PL/SQL procedures required to enforce coordination between the master and detail blocks. The actual code that Oracle Forms generates depends on how the properties of the relation are set.
