Once you have the value available in the main report body, you should then be able to refer to it in the footer by using the expression such as:
=ReportItems!FirstName.Value
This of course assumes that you have named your text box in the main body as FirstName rather than TextBox1 which would be the default.
If you don't actually want the first name to be printed in the main body, just mark it as hidden.
Good luck,

No, for some reason unknown to me, they don't allow this.
Go figure......
