So it looks like when you add an expression which grabs a parameter value
(Parameters!SRNumber.Value), it grabs the data from when the "View Report"
button was originally pressed. My goal is to allow someone to punch in new
data into a parameter and without having to re-run the report, be able to use
that for an action. Any ideas? Example of what I am attempting to do below.
= "mailto:" + Fields!SOURCE_EMAIL.Value + "?subject=SR #"
+Parameters!SRNumber.Value + " has been assigned to you"...
(SRNumber is a blank parameter which isn't actually used in any of my
queries, but rather just there for this purpose)On Dec 12, 5:25 pm, Peetaah <Peet...@.discussions.microsoft.com> wrote:

This is a long shot, but you could try using javascript. Normally, the
last value selected before the View Report button is selected is shown
in an expression based on a parameter. Sorry that I could not be of
further assistance.

I could make to get the current value :)
