Reference Report Parameters

Once you create a parameter, you can reference it in your report’s filter string to filter underlying report data.

You can also reference the parameter in a report control’s expression or its Text property.

When used in this manner, you can filter data displayed within an individual report control (such as Label) conditionally.

 

You can also bind data source parameters to report parameters and filter data at the data source level. Refer to the following help topic for more information: Reference Report Parameters.

 

Specify Parameter Values

Available report parameters appear within a report’s Print Preview window (inside the Parameters panel). Use this panel to specify desired parameter values:
