Can't run report in ASYNCHRONOUS mode

Question

Hi All,
I'm trying to make a report run in ASYNCHRONOUS mode. I want to press a button on a form, submit the report to the reports server and be able to navigate within the form while the report is being executed on the reports server.
My problem is, no matter what mode I choose (ASYNCHRONOUS or SYNCHRONOUS), the mode ALWAYS ends up being SYNCHRONOUS. After I press the button (code below), I get the hourglass and I can't navigate within the form until the report is finished. Then I can view it.
The reports server I'm using is installed locally on the same PC I'm testing the form.
Can someone help me please? I'm using using Forms Builder 9.0.2.9.0.
Thank you,
Artur

SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(v_repid, REPORT_SERVER, :TI_REPORTS_SERVER); -- local pc reports server
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(v_repid, v_param_list);
end;

Arthur,
Communication mode is soemthing forms handles when calling the run report object. Your code looks fine. You might get a quikc answer if you can post this in Forms mailing list
