I need to use a set of values provided by a user that will be updated monthly. The values will be used in a variety of forumulas throughout the report. I do not want to hard code these numbers. Is an array the way to go here? Or is there something easier? I will have approximate 40 different number values. Any insight would be much appreciated! Thank you!
 
You could set them equal to variables in a formula in the report header and then reference the variables in formulas throughout the report. You would then only have to update the formula in the report header when the values change.

Why not create a table and use it in the report?
