Hello Members,
I have a main report and it has 4 sub reports. I want to add a hyperlink object to sub report to access the customer website.Is there any way to add a hyperlink as a text object to a web site inside a sub report and access it from the mian report with out accessing the sub report ?
 
You can used Shared Variables to pass back a value from a subreport to the main report. Does that help?

You can't bypass the subreport, and I'm not sure whether you can use a hyperlink within a subreport. But why not place the hyperlink directly in the main report?

Madawac/LB Thanks for your inputs.

The data is kind of complex, I have tried to put everything in one report but that was not possible.So i had to use sub reports.

Based on Madawac's idea, Is there any way to pass multiple values into the main report based on grouping.

For example, If the data is in this format(data is in detail section in sub report):

XXXXX link1
yyyyy link2
zzzzz link3

Is it possible to pass the above 3 links into the main report to display. The number is not fixed to 3. It may change based on the data.


Thanks a lot Members.
