  Hi.

  I'm having a problem with a report link when linking to another report (from the text box ACTION), specifically with the date it sends through. It works fine when this is done through the browser, however for this particular report it is also send to users outlook email. When the click the link from within Outlook it sends through the US format, not the UK format. So, for example, it should send through the date parameter as 07/04/2011 however when the report loads it has the date parameter as 04/07/2011 which is in the future and therefore the report returns nothing!

  Both the reports I link from and to have the language set as en-GB so I'm not sure where this date format is getting modified... my Outlook is setup for the dd/mm/yyyy format so I don't suspect it's that...

  Has anyone had this problem and know the solution?

  Thanks.
