I'm still fighting with trying to get variables I pass from my form to appear on my report. The report view accepts the variables and uses them as parameters OK, but if I try to display the parameters in the report itself all I get is a blank entry.

So, in another report I'm working on I decided to just set-up a business object that has all the functionality to generate the cursor needed for my report. The parameters I use to generate the cursor are stored in properties of my object. The object also as a Print() method that runs my report (REPORT FORM blah blah). I dropped that business object onto my form that lets the user select the print options. When they click on the Print button, all of the options are saved in business object properties, and then it does: oARTReport.Print() to call the business objects Print() method.

In my report, I now need to reference the business object's properties so I can display the report parameters in the report. That's now why I need the form reference. So I can do a: oForm.oARTReport.Property
