Issue with binding parameter in Data wizard query [message #602297]

I had created a parameter (:p_attributes) and I am trying to use it in the query in Data wizard.
This parameter will be displayed in the parameter form, and will be a free-entry data-label.

I had used the below query to pull data but i dont see any data in the specific column.
The below mentioned code is part of a select statement (select clause)
The 'samples' table has 3 columns - id, name, text_value

Select text_value
from samples
where name=:p_attributes

Please let me know if I am missing something here.

Thank You for your help.

Does the same query - when ran in SQL*Plus - return any values?

What exactly do you put into that parameter's value? Could you run a query (in SQL*Plus, again), using exactly the same SELECT statement, with the same WHERE clause as you use in this report?

How do I do that? I prepare the whole SELECT statement in SQL*Plus and - once I'm done and satisfied with results it returns - simply copy/paste it into report.
