Topic: Passing Parameters within Main Report Posted: 20 Feb 2008 at 7:37am
I have a report that I have written and it is prompting for month (01) and year (2008) separately. I have inserted a prompt for the report as of date (i.e. 01/31/08). I would like to pass the month and year fields from this prompt to the month and year parameters. Is there a way to do this? I would like for the user to only have to enter the as of date not the year and month.

You can't pass the month prompt to two other prompts, but what you can do instead is use the Month() and Year() functions instead of those prompts in your report. That way the user enters the full date and your report pulls out the data it needs for the record selection formula (or wherever you are using it).
