Hyperlinks in Report Caster

I am testing Report Caster in our company and I have been able to schedule a report and send it to myself daily. The problem I'm having is that the report contains hyperlinks to 3 other reports and the links are broken. Does anyone know if it's possible to do this in Report Caster? All the subsequent reports pass data required to run all the following linked reports. For example, the first report is a Safety Stock report. This report lists parts that have fallen below a certain re-order point and it links to a P.O. report that shows if there are open orders. The PO report is linked to a Supplier data report, and finally the supplier report is linked to a A/P data report.

This depends where your linked reports are stored, in the MRE or in the EDA, if you put these reports in MRE the users should log in to the system.
You can also put them in the public domain.

BTW would you be so kind to update your signature...

I have very similar functionality working fine with ReportCaster. You have to do 2 things in code:
1. At the top of procedure put 
 SET FOCEXURL=http://ServerNameHere/ibi_apps/WFServlet

2. Link column in report to another procedure 
 TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=REPLACE_THIS_WITH_COLUMN_NAME, COLOR='BLUE', FOCEXEC=ANOTHER_PROCEDURE_NAME_HERE(PARAMETER_NAME_HERE=PARAMETER_VALUE_HERE),$
