Hey guys,

I am trying to write a report that executes a fixed Dataset based on incomming parameters into the report. Then, once the report is populated, the user clicks on a column row and that will populate a 2nd dataset based on the calling rows ID.

The problem I am having is executing the 2nd Dataset, and then also executing with a parameter passed from the column row.

Any idea's on how to do this?

I can't really do a rollup, because of the nature of the data.

I'm doing this. The way i've done it is to create a new report for the sub information. Then create a parameter for that report, which is passed from your main report. In your main report, have the parameter that is passed, make it a column in the main report query. hmm thats kinda hard to describe.
Let me know if you're still working on this and this description isn't good enough

The reports are basicly circular links, until the last level. At this last level our client wants to be able to click on a total for a line and have the summary details for that total display popup in a "window".

I actualy gave up on this, and ended up creating another linked report level, though this looks messy, but it works.
