Make an hierarchical Tree in oracle Forms 6i

Question

Hi everybody,
I want to make an hierarchical tree. I work in Forms 6i
I create one non database block e.g. 'Bloc2' then
add hierarchical control item in that. e.g 'Menu'.
I create a record group named 'RG_DATA_TEST'
Before I use a table in this record_group.
I want a tree as this :
- Menu1
Menu1 option1
Menu1 option2
- Menu1 option3
Menu option3 Sub opt 3
+ Menu2
the table 'Menu_tree' is described' :
CREATE TABLE MENU_tree
ID NUMBER(5),
LABEL VARCHAR2(128 BYTE),
ICON VARCHAR2(40 BYTE),
MASTER NUMBER(5),
STATUS NUMBER(1) DEFAULT 1,
VALUE VARCHAR2(128 BYTE)
Here the data in the table :
INSERT INTO MENU_tree ( ID, LABEL, ICON, MASTER, STATUS, VALUE ) VALUES (1, 'Menu1', 'mainmenu', NULL, 1, NULL);
INSERT INTO MENU_tree ( ID, LABEL, ICON, MASTER, STATUS, VALUE ) VALUES (
2, 'Menu1 Option 1', 'optionmenu', 1, 1, 'Dialog11');
INSERT INTO MENU_tree ( ID, LABEL, ICON, MASTER, STATUS, VALUE ) VALUES ( 3, 'Menu1 Option 2', 'optionmenu', 1, 1, dialog12');
INSERT INTO MENU_tree ( ID, LABEL, ICON, MASTER, STATUS, VALUE ) VALUES (4, 'Menu1 Option 3', 'optionmenu', 1, 1, NULL);
INSERT INTO MENU_tree ( ID, LABEL, ICON, MASTER, STATUS, VALUE ) VALUES ( 5, 'Menu1 Opt 3 Sub Opt 3', 'suboptionmenu', 4, 1, 'Dialog131');
INSERT INTO MENU_tree ( ID, LABEL, ICON, MASTER, STATUS, VALUE ) VALUES ( 6, 'Menu2', 'mainmenu', NULL, -1, NULL);
INSERT INTO MENU_tree ( ID, LABEL, ICON, MASTER, STATUS, VALUE ) VALUES ( 7, 'Menu2 Option1', 'optionmenu', 6, 1,'Dialog21');
The record_group use this instruction SELECT :
SELECT STATUS, LEVEL, LABEL, ICON, VALUE
FROM MENU_tree
CONNECT BY PRIOR ID = MASTER
START WITH MASTER IS NULL
And At the trigger When_new_form_instance , i do this code :
DECLARE
htree ITEM;
V_IGNORE number;
BEGIN
HTREE := FIND_ITEM('BLOC2.MENU');
V_IGNORE := POPULATE_GROUP('RG_DATA_TEST');
FTREE.POPULATE_TREE(htree);
END;
When i run the forms, It don't give me a structure of node.
It give me only a icon with two arrows.
Where is the problem ?
Must I add code somewhere ?
Help me for your ideas.
Regards.

Ok Francois Thanks for your response.
Just I pricise i work with oracle forms version 9.0.4.0.19 .
But I am putting this code in trigger When_New_form_Instance but it didn't work.
When I execute it just shows a line with two arrows but not a real tree.
Then I do a block-non based and a elemnt with type hierarticall tree and a canevas.
and i create a record_group. and in a palette property of the element i precise the canevas and the record_group
I don't khnow where is the problem ?
Any other suggestion ? please
Regards.
