I have a when_new_form_instance trigger that displays an instruction box for users. When a user enters query mode the box's visible property is set to false. What trigger can I use to reset the box's visible property to true after the user executes their query and the form is out of query mode?

i tried a POST-QUERY trigger but it didnt seem to have any effect, unless I need to do some kind of form-refresh to force the form to be repainted...

any suggestions would be appreciated...
 
well, actually, the post-query trigger works. since i was working with an empty table, it never went out of query mode.. once i had some test records it worked fine...
