How to create a dynamic link in a Form to link to a specific FOLDER

Question

Hello,
I have created a reports of all employees of my department.
This reports shows me the empno and ename
When I clicked on a empno ( for example empno = 1 ) then then I got a MASTER DETAIL FORM about that employee(empno = 1) .
Who he or she is and which course he or she had followed.
I want create a dynamic link in the MASTER DETAIL FORM which shows me directly the folder of that employee ( in this example folder 1 ).
If I clickt on the report with all employees of my department on an other number ( for example empno = 3333333) then if I click on the dynamic link in the MASTER DETAIL FORM I want to see the folder of employee 3333333 !!! You know what I mean ?
What I want to know is, how to create a dynamic link that shows me directly a folder which is dependent on which empno I had clicked on in the report ( report with employee numbers and ename )
Is there any way to pass some parameters into a link to a Folder ? Is this possible in Portal ? Does anyone know how to do this, or do you have a suggestion how to solve this problem ?
Thanks a lot !!!

Hi Chetan,
I am glad that someone had replied on my question.
I will explain it to you again.
I have created a report that shows me all employees. If I click on a employee number then I get an MASTER DETAIL FORM on my screen with all the information(where he works now and which number I have to dial ifhow can I reach him by telephone) of that employee on which number I clicked on.
I really like this mechanism. (You click on a number and the information that you see in the next screen is dependent of the number you clicked on ! )I have created all this. It works fine.
What I want is to expand this example.
Every employee has a FOLDER (yes, those ones in Content Area ) which they can insert text or image into that folder. The folder name is just the employee number. ( employee with employee number 3303, he owns a folder which is named 3303 and an employee with empno 9999, he or she owns a folder with the name 9999. )
Every employee can tell more about himself in that FOLDER by iserting text and images. For example : What he likes, pictures of his vacation, something like this.
What I want is this :
If I click on the first report,which provides me all employees on screen, on a employee number 3303 then I get a Master Detail Form on my screen with all information about that employee with employee number 3303. And I want in this MASTER DETAIL FORM to create a link that shows me directly the FOLDER of that employee ( 3303), so I can learn more about employee with employee number 3303. But I don't know how to create this link.
That link had to be dependent on the employee number. The difficult thing about this link is that this link had to be dynamic.
I hope this will make it clear to you :
(report all employees:)
empno ename
3301 john smith
3302 peter clark
3303 wilson jones
If I click on a empno ( for example 3303) then I get a MASTER DETAIL FORM which provides me information.
(MASTER DETAIL FORM )
EMPNO 3303
ENAME wilson jones
department New York
mobile number 98908763
Company tel. no day
AOL 097485838 monday till wednesday
Oracle 04848584333 thursday and friday
LINK
(what I want is to create a link here )
If I click on LINK in this MASTER DETAIL FORM then I want to link to the FOLDER of this employee ! ( In this example it is FOLDER 3303.
BUT IF I CLICKED ON THE FIRST REPORT ON A DIFFERENT NUMBER ( FOR EXAMPLE 3301) THEN IF I CLICK ON LINK IN THE MASTER DETAIL FORM THEN I HAVE TO LINKED TO FOLDER 3301.
I just want to know how to make a link like this ( create a dynamic link to a specific folder ).
Thanks in Advance.
