PMFJI, but if you want to set up the dataenvironment for a report programmatically, then I *believe* the only (never say "only") way to do it is in code and _then_ run the report. There is a dataenvironment associated with reports. Hmmm. Maybe you could run a function in the DoOnEntry method (?) of the report title band...But, honestly, it seems more straightforward to do it in code before doing the report.

Just my US .02
