Reusing Objects in Cognos 8 Report studio

Cognos Guru's

I am using Cognos - 8 Report studio.

I have some 10-20 reports. All the reports have same prompts. I want to create prompt/prompt pages once and re-use it in all my reports.
Is it possible to reuse my prompt pages in Cognos.
I am trying to use Layout Component Reference but it does not work for the prompts pages.

Thanks

not sure that you can share them...
but you could create report that is only a prompt page and have links to other reports that you can pass parameters through URL + javascript or drill throughs.. very rough thoughts...
