Globals.Referrer?

Regards,
We need to setup a report so that it only runs if the referrer is a certain
URL. This is so that end users cannot directly navigate to the report (or
if they know the URL, plop it into the address bar and navigate there).
Instead, we'd like the report to check if they're coming from a particular
application and run ONLY if it sees that it's coming from that application.
Any ideas?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Try to write some code to override the on_init method of the report and
check for the referrer

of report methods in SQL 2000.
Let me know.
Thanks!
