Friends I have two sub reports in a main report, and have a parameter stating to select which sub report to display. If i select A1 then user will see only A1 if A2 then he sees only A2, this part works fine. But depending on main parameter selection there are parameters with in the sub report. I am not sure how to implement this, when I select A1 only parameters belong to sub report A1 should be prompted. Is there a way to implement this?

Thanks a lot,
Vega
 
Edit > Subreport Link should let you pass parameters to a subreport. If the main report does not use a particular parameter, it should not prompt. Alternatively, it will be OK if given a default value.

This is based on Crystal 11. It always helps to give your Crystal version - 8, 8.5, 9, 10, 11 or whatever. Methods sometimes change between versions, and higher versions have extra options.
