Hi CR Experts

I have a sub report which is based on a parameter from another sub report. 

I cannot select the sub report1 fields to link to subreport 2 in the  change sub report links option. 

Therefore I have attempted to share the fields which will be the parameter for sub report 2 from sub report 1 to the main report.

I have used the below formula to share

Subreport 1
 
Whileprintingrecords;

Shared stringvar substring;

Substring:= {Command.2 Sub Assembly Code}

Main Report

whileprintingrecords;

Shared StringVar  substring;

substring

The correct field which I need as parameter for sub report 2 appears when a add the filed to the footer of the main report.  I have then linked the filed to sub report2 using the change links sub report option.

However the sub report is still not filter by the parameter.  Please advise?

Regards

Hi thanks for your reply.

No I tried the above but the 2nd sub report would not allow me to filter by a formula e.g the shared stringvar.

However I have moved some of the above fields to the footer and it seems to be filtering ok now.
