Passing the value of a field to a Subreport

  • Is it possible to have a current value of a textbox passed as a parameter to a Subreport when the textbox is clicked? What are the options to accomplish this?

    Thanks

  • you mean you want to pass the value from the textbox as a parameter for a drilldown report? or an actual subreport shown on the page already?

    I long for a job where my databases dont have any pesky users accessing them 🙂

  • It will be on a subreport already shown

  • perhaps you could reload the entire report via navigation but passing a parameter to your master report which would be passed on down to your subreport.. make sense?

    tough to explain without a picture - i haven't tested it either, but it should work ok

  • I have been sucessful with what you are suggesting. What I need the report to do is load, then a user clicks a specific field in the main report and the value of the field that was click is then passed to the subreport. The subreport's hidden property is intially set to "true" but upon the click action the subreport's hidden property is then set to false and the parameter is passed and the subreport returns the data based on the parameter.
