Report A jumps to Report B...good
Report B opens in new window...good
I have a parameter input box in Report B that is supposed to get populated
from parameter in Report A...Not working.

1. How do I make this work
2. Is this efficient or is there a better way of doing this?
3. I did jump to report but couldn't open it in a new window. Help?
4. Also when REPORT B opens, parameters need to be hidden, and subscription
stuff needs to be hidden

="javascript:void(window.open('http://ReportServer/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fReports%2fWork_Orders_Past_Due&DEPT_ID=
6)','','width=1000,height=600'))"

thanks in advance

Read up on URL Access in Books Online. You can collapse the different parts
of the report window like the parameter areas. But keep in mind they can
expand it if they want to. Jump to report will not open in another window,
you were right to use Jump to URL. My guess on why the paramter is not
filling in is because of case sensitivity. Check the parameter in the report
and make sure that you have it exact including case on the URL.

Thanx Bruce.
After playing with it a bit more I realized there are other conditions that
have to be met to make this happen.

1. I set the parameter to prompt
2. Set the parameter default to Non-queried but did not supply a value
3. Unchecked the Multi-value parameter property.

It worked like a charm. Thank you.
