passing parameters using the url and a hyperlink

Hi,

Can anyone please help.

I have a main form using three parameters A,B,Month. These are passed to a target form using a drillthrough on month.

I now want to provide an alternative to the Month parameter by using startMonth and endMonth from value prompts.(you cant drill through on value prompts).

There would therefore be 2 ways that a drill through could run, using A,B,Month
or alternatively using A,B,startMonth,endMonth.

I thought that if I used a hyperlink with the parameters attached that that might work but how do you add parameters to the url for a target report. And if they are added how do you prevent a prompt page from being made visible at run time requesting those parameters that are included in the official drill through?

This might not be possible..but I don't know.

Thanks in anticipation.

Kevin

Hi,

Can you try to create a text item (or hyperlink if you want). Define Drill through definition, select the target report parameter and value to be passed can be "Pass param value".

Thanks
