A trigger is a PL/SQL block that fires implicitly when an event occurs, such as item interaction, errors, queries, or navigation. Triggers have a type defining the event, code containing PL/SQL statements, and a scope at the form, block, or item level. Common trigger prefixes include pre-, post-, when-, on-, and key-. Triggers execute according to a defined hierarchy.

Editor's Notes
- Note: Events cause the activation, or firing, of certain trigger types.
- Note: The On-Message trigger fires whenever Form Builder displays a message.
- Note: Although you can include SQL statements in a trigger, keep in mind the following Rules about their use: INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements must be placed only in Transactional triggers. These triggers fire during the commit process. Transaction control statements (COMMIT, ROLLBACK, SAVEPOINT) cannot Be included directly as SQL trigger statements. These actions are carried Out by Form Builder as a result of either commands or built-in procedures that you issue.
