HI, SQL newbie here... less than a month. I am modifying a report from our MRP vendor. We are allowed to do this. They discourage modifying the underlying SQL for upgrade and support reasons. I need to pull commission data to the report in order to determine proper logo/address/etc information on the page. The report is about 1000 pages long, each page may have different logo, etc. So, I created a stored procedure in SQL to retrieve the data when passed a customer ID. Tests fine. When I attempt to call this stored procedure from reporting services, it tells me that I cannot use a Field (or report item) as a parameter. I cant believe they would limit reports this way. Is there any way to circumvent this limitation? Any alternate recommendations?

Thanks in advance!
Ray

Field as parameter? DIdnt get that. Based on your stored procedure, the reporting services will automatcally take parameter information. Have you add some additional parameters? And are you trying to assign values from fields? didnt get what you are telling. Can you elaborate?
