Hi all,
I I am trying to pass a record group as DATA_PARAMETER to report through RUN_REPORT_OBJECT but report failed to execute with the following message.

"Unable to Run Report".
Argument 1 to built-in RUN_REPORT_OBJECT cannot be null.

Please suggest a solution.

Thanks in advance.
Babar

Reports 6i we had an feature of passing DATA_PARAMETER - A VARCHAR2 string specifying the name of a record group defined in the current form When Form Builder passes a data parameter to Report Builder, the data in the specified record group can substitute for a query that Report Builder would ordinarily execute to run the report or display.

Since this feature is not available in Oracle Reports 10g (Passing data_parameter) we need to take an alternative approach and the best, efficient way to achieve this would be by making use of a temporary(Staging) table instead of record groups.
Build query based on these tables instead of record groups in report.
