Parameter in a subreport

[akaivyleaf]

I have a report that is based on staff name. I have a subreport that gives totals on decisions by staff name. Both report and subreport use parameters. For the convenience of my users, the answer to both parameters should be the same, hence I want access to take the value of the first parameter as the value for the second one.

Any suggestions on how to do this so as not to be prompted to answer the same question twice?

Maybe I was a bit hasty in writing this request. I solved my own problem.

Because I was using a subreport, it was already reading information required by the report so it was redundant to have two parameters. I deleted the parameter for the subreport query and it works seamlessly.
