Is is possible to pass global variable to reports by using run_product function

example
run_product(reports,'d:\software\dstock.rDF',synchronous,runtime,filesystem,:GLOBAL.KK,null);

where :global.kk is global variable in forms.

If it is possible then how to access global variable in reports

Global variables are visible to the whole session; you don't have to transfer its value like that - just reference it in the report by its name.

Hm, it seems that I was wrong about it; I apologize if my previous answer gave you some hope for an easy solution of your problem.

I did some research and - I didn't find a way to transfer a global variable value from a form to a report "as is"; from form to form, yes (and that was the fact upon I made a wrong conclusion). To report - no. Or if there is a way, I don't know how to do that.

You'll have to create a parameter in a report and transfer form's global variable value to the report as a parameter, not a global variable.
