Note:

Lines 3-17 define a user-type named office_data, which is a RECORD consisting of sub-records for the fields that were selected in the Result Set page from the tables selected in the Table Selection page.
Lines 19-48 define the run_officestore_to handler function.
- Lines 23-40 declare a cursor for the SQL SELECT statement to retrieve the data. The table join and the sort order were specified in the Define Joins and Order By pages.
- Lines 42-46 fetch the report data and send it to the REPORT function.
Lines 50-59 define the REPORT function, which outputs the data to the Genero Report Engine.
