hi
can we dynamically call a report  in report studio.

i'm opting for drop down box with values a,b,c
when a is selected, run report url for a
when b is selected run report url for b...  how do we do it..

One way to do that is to make all 3 reports inside the same report. Ex: List1 as 1st report, List2 as 2nd Report and List3 as 3rd report, or Crosstabs instead of List.

Use Conditional Explorer, create a string variable checking for the ParameterDispValue, show only one report at a time using a Render Variable and hide others.

here's story..
we have master report with  parameter filters on page and we'r dynamically passing parameter values to the 3 different details reports and these reports are displayed as I FRAME in Master report in 3 columns. now we want give the option to user  to pick report from drop down box ,

when we chooses "A" report, it has to pass report name "A" +  param values to detail report thru url. can we do it...

can we do it..
