I have a form with a search funtion that calls up details on that same form.
I would like to use the value entered into the search form and pass it via a hyperlink to another form.
I've coded it manually to test and it works fine.
What I need to know is how to confure the hyperlink dialogue 'parameter source' to contain the value in the field I have entered on my original search?
I have not found documentation to help me through this yet?
Thanks for any assist!

When you pass a param from a search form it automatically adds it to the url?
or you can just add the element manually in html:
nextpage.php?Param= {Element_name}
?

Thx for your reply.
I know about search and connection to a grid...
My issue is I have a situation where I was trying to pass a session variable to the next program. This next program is a report. In fact the report works fine and I put the session variable in the where clause. The report works fine; however, when I go to print the generated report the where clause is ignored! I have proven that with debug.
I manually coded a url parameter to call the secondary program (where clause changed to deal with this) and the on screen works fine; and in that case the printed report also works fine.
There is either a bug in CCS or some setting needed 'somewhere' to deal with this, but I have yet to find this.
My work around involves a hyperlink on inital page and where it comes to configuring the hyperlink is what I can't see how to do.
The middle paramter in settings 'PARAMETER SOURCE' is what I don't know how to code and what I am looking for help on.
I did submit this issue to CCS Support and after the better part of a week I don't have a resolution - I do believe it is either a bug in CCS related session variables or some setup issue which is not yet quite clear to me. It is just getting very frustrating because I can't find any reference or examples of these parameters so far!
In this case it is the data selected in the search portion that I want to pass along.
Any idesa?

Problem is now solved.
I found out why my session variable was not working!
I have both IE and Firefox loaded and when testing in CCS when I open second window it calls IE and IE doesn't see the session variable.
So published project in my environment works fine and all I need to look for is why this happens in CCS development environment!
