Hi all,
When I set this property

SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('my_form',VALIDATION_UNIT,BLOCK_SCOPE)

Does this mean that the triggers I have written will fire giving priority to the block triggers first and then the triggers written on items or records?
Please help
 
You can not set VALIDATION_UNIT for item. It's applicable for whole form only.
Tha fact that you don't get error doesn't mean that your statement is executed correctly: VALIDATION_UNIT and BLOCK_SCOPE are names of constants and different constants may have the same value.
So setting VALIDATION_UNIT property to BLOCK_SCOPE for item may lead to unpredictable results (say, changing a color) or just raises an error No SUCH PROPERTY if there's no item property with the same number.
