Create a parameter in rdlc report

Question

I am a newbie to rdlc reports. I need to create a parameter that i will pass to a subreport. However I cannot find where in the report designer to create parameters.I am using VS 2010

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Have you tried View --> Report Data? Then you should see Parameters in the Report Data window. This is how I get to the parameters in VS2010.

Answer 2

Just a quick remark for people using VS2008: open the RDLC in the designer and a Report main menu item should appear. The first sub-menu item is Report Parameters. You can configure the parameters from there.
