Re: How do you pass the current user's web loginid to an SQR prog ram in REPORTMART

[Juan Alvarado <juan@GYSSA.COM.GT>]

Dan:
in Reportmart exists a variable called $FIXED_USERNAME.
when you vew the propeties of the report in the parameters (INPUT OR ASK)
you put in the field of the username on the default propeties the variable
$FIXED_USERNAME.  This capture the currently logon ID of the session that
try to run the report.

Also when you put this variable the reportmart dont
prompt for the field that use it.

This is document in the Release notes of the report mart.

By the way i use the Reportmart version 1.5.2.  I think Sqribe introduce
this feature from 1.5.1.

I hope this help you

This is a question on ReportMart.  I am really new at this.   Is there a way
to get the logon id of what the user just entered to get into the reportmart
web site and pass that into my sqr program?  I don't want to have to make
the user enter their name and password as parameters for each report they
run.
