Dbms_output in child report

Question

Hi,
I've been trying to create a report with a child report of type "dbms_output" which does not seem to be working.
The child report by itself (in another report) works correctly, but if it's the child of any other one it doesn't. I have tried both using bind variables and without using them.
The message I get is the typical syntax error even when the code is somethin as simple as this:
begin
dbms_output.put_line('Hello');
end;
Perhaps I just didn't find some very simple option, but it looks like a issue with reports to me.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Both worked.
I have this report:
Master Name: dept
Master Style: Table
SQL:
select deptno
     , dname
     , loc
  from dept
order by deptno
Child Type: Detail
Child Name: dbms_test
Child Style: plsql-dbms_output
SQL:
begin dbms_output.put_line(:DNAME); end;No other report attributes are set.
This version works fine. But if I change child SQL to
begin
dbms_output.put_line(:DNAME);
end;I get
ORA-06550: line 1, column 6
PLS-00103 found '' but expected one of the following:...and the same messages for line 2, column 30.
WinXP SP2 (czech), 10g rel.10.2.0.3.0, SQLDev 1.2.1.32.13.
Could you compare my and your report attributes, please? Thanks.
