Skip Form Load when report is opened

Hi All

I am using Drill Down functionality in a report, and want to Drill to another report, the problem is the drill down report has a Form associated with it, that loads when the report is run to collect some parameters, this is needed when the user runs this report. However when the I am using the Drill Down feature in another report, I want to open this second report but do not want the Form to load, as I will pass the relevant parameters via the Drill Down Parameters.

Anyone know how to accomplish this? I do not want to make another version of the report without the Form, as I will then need to maintain both reports

Thanks

Tom

Hello Tom,

You can provide drill-down parameter, for example of boolean type which you can test before detail report rendering in BeginRenderEvent of detail report. For example:

Code: Select all

if (myparameter)
 Form1.Visible = false;
Thank you.
