RR 10

When you use rrwrun.exe and run several reports using the @<command file> method, or the other method, is there a way of passing the parameter entered in one report to another?__For example, you are running six reports, the first reports prompts you for a code, the second and third report will be using the same code, which means that when the 1st report finishes, the 2nd report will ask for the same code, and so on.____Please advise & thanks.__

You would need to write your own front end program to collect the parameter and then pass that value to each of the report input files.____Kathleen__R&R Support

I can^t promise you that this will work, but, assuming the parameter is defined as a calculated field using RIPARAM(), output the first report to a DBF and then link (or flexlink) all your ensuing reports to that. I^ve done this successfully... once.
