Q: How to Pass RecordGroup from Forms to Graphics

hi,

I want to pass a record group to Oracle Graphics. This record group is generated by a PL/SQL procedure. The document says that I can create a parameter list by

	plid := create_parameter_list(the_param);
	add_parameter(plid, 'chart_data', DATA_PARAMETER, 'chart_record_group');
and pass the parameter list to Oracle Graphics by
	run_product('chart.ogd', SYNCHRONOUS, BATCH, FILESYSTEM, plid, 'chart_item'); 

My question is: how can I read the parameters passed from Forms in Graphics? How can I get a row or a column from the record group? I have never found any functions in Oracle Graphics which allow me to do this. It seems to me that Oracle Graphics uses some name conventions to access the parameters passed from Forms. Am I right? Can anyone tell me which name conventions are supposed? (query name or chart name, etc.)

Any help would be appriciated.
