Error in updatable report

Question

Hi All,
I need to add validation to updatable report.
As the report doesnot have items, I am using collection package.
eg:
select
htmldb_item.select_list_from_query(9,em_agent,'select em_agent, em_agent from IBM_MANAGED_DATABASES') em_agent,
htmldb_item.select_list_from_query(10,em_in_scope,'select em_in_scope, em_in_scope from IBM_MANAGED_DATABASES') em_in_scope
from "#OWNER#"."IBM_MANAGED_DATABASES" d, ibm_servers s
where d.server = s.server
When I run the page, I am getting an error
report error:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
The same thing I implemented on emp ,dept tables in apex training instance and it works.
Can anyone please address where I am going wrong in actual implementation.
Thanks.

Sarvani,
I am sorry I did not get you "or change your handle to show it".I mean go to the Control Panel link (top right of on my page) and make your handle something like "Sarvani". While you are there click "Show" for your name and put at least your first name there. Messages are a lot easier to track when they are associated with human-sounding names.
Is that you are pointing to the way I explained the problem.I don't know what you mean by that.
My report has 1045 columns...1045 rows
and as you suggested I used apex_item.popupkey_from_query...I first suggested that you try select_list_from_query_xl. Did you try that? I don't think it will help because you are returning so many rows but you could try it.
Then you tried the popupkey_from_query. I am not clear if the page doesn't run and gives a 404 or if the page runs and the popup page gets a 404.
When you put the test case on apex.oracle.com, we will be debugging the popup item but it will be much easier if you can first check your Apache logs on your system and get the error message.
