You should pass all columns but with separator character i.e.:
supl_cd||';'|| supl_name ||';' city ||';'|| add1 ||';'|| add2 ||';'|| pincode ||';'|| country my_column
You should also pass column names if you want and get them back using the same procedure.
Procedure for retrieving should use instr,loop and srw.do_sql, if you don't know what is SRW built in package, then take a look in report's help. That's a pity that there is nothing similar in forms. You can use dynamic select to pass values exactly to the report's variables:
for i in 1..10 loop
srw.do_sql('select '||i||' into :cp_'||i||' from dual');
end loop;
