NULL is not a valid option for the parameter list argument.  You must
create a blank parameter list.  Below is an example:

Declare

pl ParamList; 

Begin
	run_product(REPORTS, 'my_report', SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, pl,
NULL);

End;

This is a bug in the version of Oracle Forms 5.0.6.8.0

Hope this helps,
