Hyperlink Crystal Report to Crystal Report with separate params?

Hello, I'm using version 8.5 and trying to link a Crystal Report main report to another report that uses the same stored procedure on a network. I want them to remain separate, as I want the parameters of the second report to fire only when the hyperlink on the first report has been clicked--not before. So far, everytime I try to set this up, the main report turns the second report into a subreport and the parms of the subreport fire when the main report loads.

Is this a version thing or is there something I need to do differently?

This is what I'm doing:

On Main Report:
Click on "Insert hyperlink"
Dialog to select "another crystal report" comes up and I choose the file to link to.
Put the link in the Page header section of the main report.
Click on the Main report to test.

During the load of the main report, the parms box pops up containing all of the parameters for itself and for the other report. When I click on the link, none of the parameters refire.
