Julian,
You can't get variable to pass from a report to a form but by adding 1 more step you could still possibly create the functionality. You can use links to go from a report to a specific records and weblinks to create new records and pass data through. So try this:
Add the activity ID to the report, then go to Column Properties - data format and change it to custom Text. This is what I used for a link back to the Oppty record so adapt this to pull up the required activity.
@[html]"<a href="/OnDemand/user/OpportunityDetail?OpptyDetailForm.Id=@H&OMRET0=%2fOnDemand%2fuser%2fOpportunityHomePage&OMTHD=OpportunityDetailNav&OMTGT=OpptyDetailForm&ocTitleField=Name&ocEdit=Y" target="_blank">"Opty Information"</a>"
Then on the Activity record create a weblink that creates a new activity and passes the data from the old activity to the new one. Bob will have sent you the Copy Opty document so you will need to adapt that to work for you.
