Inserting an Active Report in to an HTML page via the HTML composer

Maybe there is a setting that I am missing or something...but I have an HTML page that I've created in the composer to be used as a 'dashboard'. It has about 9 different graphs and reports, including an Active Report. I used the same process I do for inserting my other reports on the page. Insert - New Report. Then I Embed the procedure (instead of referencing it) in to the HTML page.

Each time the user makes a selection from the drop down list in the Form, they must click a LOAD button, which will execute all the graphs/reports on the page. The Active Report only works the very first time the user does this. If they select a different value from the drop down, then the report will jumble the columns and I'll end up with data in columns where they don't belong. It's the strangest thing.

Is there maybe a property that I need to set? I've tried all the ones I see in the properties box, but maybe I am missing something.

Thank you! I'll post some specific code if necessary, but the HTML page is HUGE, so if there's a way to narrow it down that would be great.

If a user selects a different value from the dropdown and hits load button, is it executing the same fex ? If so, try putting -SET &echo=all
and -EXIT in the middle of fex where it uses the drodown variable value and see if it really is taking the value.
I am guessing, when the user runs it for the first time, the page loads with the active report by taking the default value from the dropdown. Do you autoexecute set to true?
That could be the reason why it is running for the firsttime.

Actually - auto execute is set to false. A customer has to be selected from the dropdown and the load button must be clicked before any of the graphs/reports on the page will load.

I will try the -SET statement and -EXIT you suggested to see if anything shows up.

Thank you!
