Link column from an interactive report to insert a row in a tabular form

Question

Hi, I need your help, i'm new on APEX and i really need to make a "link column" from an "interactive report" to insert a row into a "tabular form".
I mean that when you click the "link column" instantly create a new row in the Tabular form with the information of the linked row on the interactive report. Its something like that.
I really appreciate your help.

Hi Ricardo,
You can use the following code as per your requirement (this is just an example),
(In this case IR report is in Page#1 and Tabular form is in Page#2),
On Page#1, Create a hidden item (i.e 'P1_ID')
IR Report query as like the below,
select empno,
ename,
job,
mgr,
hiredate,
sal,
comm,
deptno,
empno "copy"
from empUse the below JS code in Page HTML Header section,
function f_insert_row(pSub)
    $s('P1_ID',pSub);
    doSubmit('ADD');
Edit  Report Attribute -> copy column -> Under Column Link
Link Text: Select your column name (i.e. #EMPNO#)
Target: URL
URL: javascript:f_insert_row(#EMPNO#);
Then create a process to insert like below,
BEGIN
insert into emp_test (select * from emp where empno=:P1_ID);
END;Process condition as * Request=Expression1* in Expression1 as 'ADD'.
At last, create a branch to Page#2, Check 'include process success message' and with the same condition as * Request=Expression1* in Expression1 as 'ADD'.
Thanks,
