Subreport - formula from Main report

[AntonioPerera]

I have a report which I now want to incorporate into another main report as a subreport.

The report has uses parameters YEAR and PERIOD.

The YEAR parameter is linked to a field in the database and I can use selection criteria but the PERIOD is used in a formula field.

How can I get a formula from my main report into the subreport formula field to substitute the PERIOD ?

Just create a parameter in main report called period with same data type as sub report.

Then when linking link main report param to sub report param, using box in lower left hand side, open drop down and scroll to PERIOD parameter.
