Pass parameters from main report to sub reports

Question

I have searched many sites for this but the suggestions do not work. I set 2 parameters on the main report. I have added the 2 sub reports, both are to use the same values of these parameters. The 2 parameters are date values I need to use as a date range in the select expert where I am using a Is Between check. I right click on the sub report and click the Change the sub report links. When I select the parameter in the Available Fields: drop down the Select data in subreport based on field: is not populated with any choices - which was one of the suggestions I read about. Can someone walk me thru this process?

Thanks

You have to create parameters in your Sub reports first for them to appear in the Connecting list and then map to main reports parameters
