Howto have cr for VS prompt for selection vars

[lawrence_sall]

I have several reports and want the enduser to be able to build a report and then access it throu my VB.net app. The problem I have is they will add selection criteria that my code cannot easily prompt for, I want to bring up the report in a display window and have it auto prompt, like CR application does when run is selected. How do I go about this?

Hi Lawrence,

Do you mean Parameters, is that what you mean when you say Prompt?

If that is what you mean then see this Parameter Test app:

If not then please explain more...

PS - SP 18 is available, which you will need for the test app above.

Not Really, but the need died with my attention directed to a very long project. Thank you for your response
