Pass a parameter value to a Dataset Parameter in SSRS 2008


I have a dataset with a parameter as which is passed to a query as shown below.

enter image description here

The issue here is DataSet parameter queryOptions does not accept the value from the Report Parameter Date.

If i hardcode any value e.g <CalendarDate> 08/11/2012 </CalendarDate> instead of <CalendarDate> = Parameters!Date.Value </CalendarDate> the report works fine.

What wrong am i doing while passing parameter.

I even created another Dataset Parameter named Date and assigned Parameter Value [@Date] even that did not work.

Note: Parameter Date is of type DateTime


Solution

  • Ok i got this working!

    1. I created a new Parameters in the Parameters folder as Date and queryOptions.So basically queryOptions is everything that i want to use as a query.

    2. Then another queryOption parameter is created under Dataset Properties>>Parameters.

    3. Set value of queryOptions(Step 2) to [queryOptions](Step 1).
