Global Variable question



Global Variable question rjseh2001

sql server reporting services: Anyone out there know how to bring in the global variable value for where the
report was run from, whether it's the core report or a linked report? There
already is a global variable for Report Folder but that displays where the
core object sits so if you have a linked report sitting in a different
folder, you get misleading data.

It would be nice to be able to display the actual folder from where the
report was run.

Any ideas out there? Any help appreciated.

Thanks

One thing you might try is to create a parameter, and have its data set query
the reporting server database to follow the link back to its parent...
