Required help ASAP...Repeating Reports Output

Question

I have a table e.g. EMP which has folllowing columns:
Empno Ename Deptno Frequency
001 XYZ 10 5
002 FFF 20 4
003 POP 10 2
Now I need to develop a report so that based upon the value of
frequency the Record should be repeated in the Report i.e.
For employee 003 the same record should be printed Twice(As
frequency is 2).
One way is by Creating temporary table in Database and inserting
into it values through After-Parameter-Form trigger and then
fetching data from it.
But I need to do it without creating a Temporary table.
Please Help.

Hi!
Another workaround is to
create table num (f1 number primary key);
populate it with numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,...
and then use the following query in
Data Model:
select a.* from EMP a, num b where b.f1<=a.frequency;
