A field named xxx_date is a text item which we have to enter manually so as to update a record in that particular date. This is a mandatory field without which we cannot continue the data entry..

I am getting this error while trying to update the record

FRM-40509 :Oracle error :unable to update record

I have kept the enabled = yes
required=no
data type=Date.. in the property pallet

Pls help..

Run the form again, enter the value. There'll be an error (of course). Now, go to Forms runtime HELP menu and choose "Display error". What's written in there?

Thanks for the acknowledgment

I have solved the error by dropping and recreating the date field. Now it is working fine without any flaws.
