    Hello--I do not know if this group can help me with SQL Server Reporting Services ... but here it goes. I have a report built on a query and I want to be able to send a parameter (@theWhere) that is a string which is a where clause "(MEGLOMART_TYP_CODE <> 'XYZ' AND MEGLOMART_STAFF_SHORTAGE > 25)" these strings can vary depending on what columns the user selects and what operators they want to use. Generation of proper SQL for the where clause has been verified, I just need to be able to pass these, is there any way to do this...see example query below and how I was planning on using the @theWhere variable...

    Yes. Make a hidden parameter. Then use a variable to build the sql statement to run, using this parameter as the where clause.

    If you can't explain to another person how the code that you're copying from the internet works, then DON'T USE IT on a production system! After all, you will be the one supporting it!
