Answer 1

You need the execute keyword only when you run it directly from sqlplus.. that will tell sqlplus to append the keyword begin and end after the procedure call.
Example.
SQL > exec proc1 (input1);
will tell sqlplus to run it as a block.. saying
sql> Begin
          proc1(input1);
      end;Inside the procedure , in your code, you dont need the execute keyword.
But, why do you want to execute a procedure inside the source for a report region..?
