Hi

Not sure I understand this. Anything that can be created in a report can
also be create on a form. So instead of running the 1st report you could
create a form and run the "2nd" (?) report from that

Just an idea

Well, both Forms and Reports are just tools. There is no data stored in a
report, and you can't search or reuse the "generated report"'s data! The data
exists solely in the table, perhaps combined with calculated fields in a
Query.

Could you explain more about the nature of your data and of the report you
want to generate?
