    I'm stuck with a report not being able to use the URL parameter.

    I get the error:

    The report parameter  is read-only and cannot be modified.

    I do have a prompting text for the report, and I've checked the XML and there are <PROMPT></PROMPT> tags!

    here is what i found:

    Explanation

    This error occurs when you attempt to set a value for a parameter that is read-only.

    User Action

    Search Books Online for more information about the parameter. There are conditions that you can control that determine whether the parameter is read-only.

    hi

    maybe in the report parameters you didn't write the prompt text and choose the default value=non-queried???

    Well, I got it to work finally.  I knew the report worked since it was a copy, and that original report was working.  I had to set the parameter back to a dataset, run the report that way, then take the values away in order to look at the URL.  It worked, so that's all I needed.

    Oh, I had to delete the files from the server first too.  Seemed like sometimes the deploy didn't overwrite what was up there.

    Thanks!
