The report can be run from the forms in simple steps... i will show you how to run report from forms by passing a parameter to the report :
1.Create a report with the desired fields which you want to show..now go to the reports and create a user parameter named p_serial_no.
2. Then create a print button on your form and then write this code in the WHEN-BUTTON-TRIGGER of the button. I have added comments to explain the code
/*
** Declare a variable of type ParamList to store
** the Parameter list ID
*/
DECLARE
temp_id paramlist;
BEGIN
commit;
/*
** Create a Parameter list named "V_A"
*/
temp_id := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('V_A');
/*
** Add two Parameters to the list to pass values for each
** user-defined Parameters defined in the target form; for each
** Parameter, specify its key, type (text or data), and value
*/
ADD_PARAMETER(temp_id,'p_serial_no',text_parameter,to_number(:e_fee.fee_id,'999999999999'));
/*
** Pass a Parameter into PARAMFORM so that a parameter dialog
will not appear
** for the parameters being passing in.
*/
ADD_PARAMETER(temp_id,'paramform',text_parameter,'NO');
add_parameter(temp_id,'MAXIMIZE',TEXT_PARAMETER,'YES');
add_parameter(temp_id,'DESNAME',TEXT_PARAMETER,'PRINTER');
/*
** Run the report synchronously, passing the parameter list
*/
run_product(reports,'F:\Education\feevchr2.rdf',synchronous,runtime,filesystem,temp_id);
destroy_parameter_list(temp_id);
end;
2.A..... Replace the name of the primary key field which you have in your form or any other field in the above code where :e_fee.fee_id is written
2.B..... replace the path of the report file which you created earlier in the above code where 'F:\Education\feevchr2.rdf' is written.

................That's it when you will click the print button on form, it will invoke the report which you have created and it will be according to the field of wich you have passed the parameter..................................

i have a repeating frame that prints on every page for a product code. But when on page ends the info associated with that product code is truncated and not overflowed to the next page.On the next page data with the new product code is displayed. I want the data for one product code to be continued on the next page if it does not fit on a single page. The values are as: repeating frame vertical = variable horizontal = variable page protect = 0 print object on = first page base printing on = enclosing object for the outermost frame which encloses the repeating frame: print object on = last page base printing on = anchoring object end of layout section = yes rest all the values are same as the repeating frame
