Hi All,
Kindly help me to trigger creating new record after validate a list_item (after key board leave it)
when I add a when_validate_item or post_change triggers and write on it only the code
" create_record; "
it gives an error that it is not allowed there!
and when I make same code in a when_new_item_instance it creates a new record even if the list not changed !
your help is appreciated !

The best option (in my opinion) is to do nothing. Use WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM for validation. If you want to create a new record, just navigate to the next record (key down on the keyboard, or use Forms toolbar).

You could do what you want in KEY-NEXT-ITEM trigger, but it'll fire if you leave that item using the keyboard. Won't fire if you navigate out of it using a mouse.
