I'm looking at using DataMethods to pass the curuserid as a parameter to filter a dataset on the current user. How to do that ?
For now when I need this, I'm creating an action item menu that launches a class. This class feeds the curuserid as a parameter before launching the actual output menu item.
I'm trying to see if it could be simplified by getting the current user directly from within a data method. For now even if I create a Data Method that returns an hardcoded string it seems I can't feed a parameter (either the value or the allowed values) with a datamethod.
Are datamethod onyl usable as data sources for the report but not as a source for parameters ?
Thankds in advance (using Reporting Services 2005).
