Passing parameters to reports

[Guest]

Is there a way to pass a paramter to multiple components
of a report? In otherwords, suppose your report needs two
charts and the queries behind them use the same
paramter. If you just create the two charts it will ask
for the parameter twice when you run the report when you
only want to have to type it in once.

Thanks!

Use the values of form controls to set all of your criteria. This is much
more powerfull and flexible than parameter prompts.

You should set the parameter value in your header or
better as a public variable over the report.
