Error with stored procedure block datasource

Question

Hi all,
I tried to base a datablock on a stored procedure in order to get better runtime performance. I work with Forms Builder 6i with patch 17 , and our database is oracle 8.1.7.1.4
But when compiling I got errors.
Here are what I did :
create or replace type TSourceObject as object(name varchar2(30), propname varchar2(200));
create or replace type TSourceTable is table of TSourceObject;
create or replace procedure p_query_ntwk_chnl_mirror(p_tab IN OUT NOCOPY TSourceTable, p_action varchar2, p_lien number)
is
begin
if p_action = 'VISU' then
select TSourceObject(B.bdw_name, P.prop_bdw_name)
bulk collect into p_tab
from T_NETWORK_CHANNEL N, t_bdw_mw B, t_prop_bdw_mw P
where B.comp_bdw = P.comp_bdw and P.comp_prop_bdw = N.comp_prop_bdw
and EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM t_channel_element C
WHERE N.comp_network_channel = C.comp_network_channel and comp_lien = p_lien);
else
select TSourceObject(B.bdw_name, P.prop_bdw_name)
bulk collect into p_tab
from T_NETWORK_CHANNEL N, t_bdw_mw B, t_prop_bdw_mw P
where B.comp_bdw = P.comp_bdw and P.comp_prop_bdw = N.comp_prop_bdw;
end if;
end;
Then I created the datablock with the wizard , I entered correctly the value of the arguments for the table type name, the argument p_action and the argument p_lien.
And when compiling there was this alert error :
Compiling QUERY-PROCEDURE trigger on NETWORK_CHANNEL_MIRROR data block...
Compilation error on QUERY-PROCEDURE trigger on NETWORK_CHANNEL_MIRROR data block:
PL/SQL ERROR 960 at line 5, column 9

PL/SQL ERROR 320 at line 8, column 28

PL/SQL ERROR 0 at line 8, column 1

Compilation errors have occurred.
So what should I do ?
Thank you very much indeed.

I create the package , and when creating the body then there was an error.
Here is the package :
create or replace package pkg_query_ntwrk_chnl_mirror
is
type TSourceObject is record(name varchar2(30), propname varchar2(200));
type TSourceTable is table of TSourceObject index by binary_integer;
procedure p_query_ntwk_chnl_mirror(p_tab IN OUT NOCOPY pkg_query_ntwrk_chnl_mirror.TSourceTable, p_action varchar2, p_lien number);
end;
create or replace package body pkg_query_ntwrk_chnl_mirror
is
procedure p_query_ntwk_chnl_mirror(p_tab IN OUT NOCOPY pkg_query_ntwrk_chnl_mirror.TSourceTable, p_action varchar2, p_lien number)
is
begin
if p_action = 'VISU' then
     select B.bdw_name, P.prop_bdw_name
     bulk collect into p_tab
     from T_NETWORK_CHANNEL N, t_bdw_mw B, t_prop_bdw_mw P
     where B.comp_bdw = P.comp_bdw and P.comp_prop_bdw = N.comp_prop_bdw
     and EXISTS (SELECT 1
     FROM t_channel_element C
     WHERE N.comp_network_channel = C.comp_network_channel and comp_lien = p_lien);
else
     select B.bdw_name, P.prop_bdw_name
     bulk collect into p_tab
     from T_NETWORK_CHANNEL N, t_bdw_mw B, t_prop_bdw_mw P
     where B.comp_bdw = P.comp_bdw and P.comp_prop_bdw = N.comp_prop_bdw;
end if;
end;
end;
And here is the error :
7/2 PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
8/20 PLS-00597: expression 'P_TAB' in the INTO list is of wrong type
15/2 PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
16/20 PLS-00597: expression 'P_TAB' in the INTO list is of wrong type
And what is the problem here ? I think it is right!
