onDemand Subreport

[kken]

Hi All:
I have a report running of an ado recordset using the ttx file. I am tring to create an ondemand subreport that will prompt me for parameters and do some calculations.
The problem is I can not get the subreport to prompt for parameter or even link properly, meaning no records in the subreport.
I tried useing the same ttx file for the subreport and link the primary keys but get no info.

Any ideas would be appriciated
Thanks

You must edit the subreport, add a parameter and USE it in the report; if you don't use it, the report won't prompt you for it.

Hi pelajhia:
I do have the param on the report and specified prompting text. It still does not promt me for the param.

I am not familiar with your specific situation (an ado recordset using the ttx file), but perhaps if you provide a general idea of what the main report is doing and then the subreport AND the specific names of the fields you are trying to link into the subreport, AND the specific name of the parameter(s) you have created in the subreport and where you placed the parameter in the report...I or others may be able to help you trouble shoot a bit more.

I have a report and subreport both running of an ADO recordset using an .ttx file. This part I have working well. The subreport is an on-demand subreport.
What I want is to be prompted for values which I can use in calculations. The parameter, lets say param1 is numeric and has prompting text, is placed on the subreport. Not only does it not prompt for it but it does not even appear on the subreport.
Any help will be much appriciated
Thanks
