I know this subject has been covered from A to Z and I've read a lot of those posts. I have scheduled a job in report caster with a fex that has parameters. Those parameters are defined in the 'Task-Advanced' menu option. But, those vars are not working in the Subject of the email distribution. Ex: '&var'

Is there anything else I must do other than define them in the advanced tab and reference the var in the Subject line?

BTW - The '%BURST' var works fine, for one and many attachments.

Thank you,

Existing vars are not passed into the report, they are -DEFAULTED or -SET to FOC_NONE and generated by the report at run time. Maybe the problem is that then need to be generated by a PRE process procedure and passed. I'm planning on setting up that test later today/tomorrow and find out.
