I have a aspx page that displays a report based on parameters. I use the
report viewer tool. The objectdatasource will allow you to configure the
query and parameters. I use a dropdown box for one parameter and a session
variable to limit the report presented to the current logged on user. I am
using "form authentication". That is the good news.
I have not been able to get the report to show the correct data when I
select a different value in the dropdown box. More specifically, I use a
session variable for the userid. I use the dropdown box to select the month
of data to be presented. I set the selected index from the load procedure. I
have autopostback set for the dropdown box, but the report displays the same
data no matter what I select in the dropdown box. I can post the code if you
would like.
