Difficulty in passing parameter in Forms 4.5

I have difficulty in passing parameter list between two forms.

        Assume forms FORM1 has a button with the following codes:

	declare 
		para_id paramlist;
	begin
		para_id := get_parameter_list('para_name');
		if not id_null(para_id) then
			desttoy_parameter_list(para_id);
		end if;
		para_id := create_parameter_list('para_name);
		add_parameter(para_id,'p1',text_parameter,'testing');
		call_form('FORM2',no_hide,no_replace,no_query_only,para_id);
	end;

	But in FORM2, when-new-form-instance trigger, I don't know how to code

and show the p1's value in para_id. (it should show 'testing') I know that it needs to define the parameter list again in FORM2. But I have tried many times in different ways and still get the error message "p1 not defined in FORM2". Could anyone help me to solve this problem? (press button in FORM1 and open FORM2 to show p1)

Thank in advance,
