Hey Folds - working with CR10 on Sybase.

I've got a simple report that lists a bunch of data including Account ID which is also the only Group. The report will list many records.

I have inserted a Subreport in the Group Footer as an On-Demand subreport that will create a letter to be mailed to the Account ID (linked from Main Report). What I want to be able to do is customize the letter/subreport to request certain required items from the Account ID (ie. required reports, financial statements, etc...)...these are not stored in the database unfortunately. I was hoping to accomplish this by placing parameters in the Subreport that will prompt the user to select requested items when they click on the On-Demand subreport. However, the main report is prompting me for the parameters at run-time so all the letters have the same requested items.

So, in summary, is there a way to have an On-Demand subreport request it's own parameters when selected from the Main Report? Is there a work-around in Crystal for this?

Thanks,
-Ed
