Alex,
What I thought I might be able to do is use a report as a wrapper to another set of reports with the wrapper report running the dataenvironment.
Any ideas?
TIA
Rex

I am trying to create a blank report, with no dataenvironment, to call the correct report form based on my input, but am running into problems.
