Passing Main Report Date Parameters to Subreport Date Parameters

[fredong]

I am using CR v.8.0 for web report.I have a main report and a subreport and both 2 reports have same date parameters prompts DateStart and DateEnd except the subreport has extra Qtr parameter prompt. While running this web report it requires to login twice for user name,password and the Date parameters because of the subreport embedded. Is there a way just to enter once instead of twice for the login and the date parameters.Please advice. Thanks.

The login should be just once unless you're using different data sources.

As for the parameters in the subreport, eliminate the date parms from the sub, and point the main report parms to the subreport database fields directly, that way you only have one prompt.

the Delete is grayed out on the subreport and I am not able to do it. I need to let you know that the reports were created with a store procedure backend.

Ahhhh, right, well if the sub uses the SP then I think that CE 8 will prompt twice.

You state that you have a web report, which means very little, please specify how this report is made available on the web, are you using CE, or?
