There is no way to pass a parameter to a report. However, you have full access to anything that is visible at the time the report is run. For example, if you are in a form when you issue REPORT FORM, you may reference ThisForm.myProperty in the report. You may also reference any existing variables, call a UDF, or call a method on the form.
