I have developed a report with MR to produce a report (output to Excel w/formulas) based on 3 parameters. I need to run this report for about 150 sets of parameters and then email the report to 150 indivduals each month. I am new to WF and have been struggling to figure out how to make this work in Report Caster... Any suggestions out there?

Hi,

Can't you do a burst report?

Creating an temporary table which will have those 150 parameter set and join that with your main table. Then while displaying the result, sort the table by using the parameter set fields.

EXAMPLE

TABLE FILE TEMP
PRINT NAME ID
ON TABLE HOLD AS TEMP1
END
-RUN

JOIN NAME IN MAINTABLE TO NAME IN TEMP1

TABLE FILE MAINTABLE
PRINT DETAILS
BY NAME
BY ID
END
-EXIT

In Reportcaster, use the burst option and give the individual email id.

It just an thought.

If there is a relation between the parameters and the 150 receivers it should be easy
To give you the perfect answer we need to know a bit more.
Try to simplify your question with the use of the CAR dataset or one of the other example databases.
