Summary


In this chapter, we have seen how to interact with report users to help them retrieve specific information. Hopefully the distinct difference between Report Parameters and Data Set Parameters has been made clear. In later chapters, we will look at other ways Report Parameters can be used and this concept is going to be used more in depth when we start looking at scripting and changing visual components and properties. We have taken a look at how values can be bound to properties, which is going to be more important as we look at different report types and capabilities.
