Report/ Sub Reports and parameter queries

I have a master report, which contains 10 sub reports. Each of the sub reports is based on parameter queries that prompt for a beginning date and an ending date. The same begin and end date is used for all. When running the master report, you are thus prompted for a start and end date 10 times.

I created a form to capture the 2 dates, and I would like to pass them to the master report so that it is opened automatically without all the prompting.

Can anyone help?
 
Hi

If the Form which allows you to input the dates is open when teh report runs, simply cahnge teh queries so taht the criteria [Begin Date] {End Date] or whatever is replaced by the form controls in the style Forms!frmMyForm!BeginDate, in the query designer, there is a builder button to help your through this
