Answer 1

Sure - You need to also select the empno in your report. In the report attributes, you click on the empno field, and you can make it a report link. You would basically create a 2nd page which will be your pop-up, and create an item called P2_EMPNO (assuming your 2nd page is page 2).
Then on your pop-up page, you can use that empno to fetch the other fields. Either by using an automated-row fetch, or other means.
If you want a quick tutorial on making pop-ups, check here. Any questions, post back.
