[SOLVED] Passing Data Service Value

I have an ASP page that successfully runs a report that uses a new service that I created called LAUNCH, instead of using the defualt EDASERVE. I am running to an issue when I try to run a drill down report with this new service. Is there a value that I need to pass from the original report to the drill down reports? If so, how do I do that?
Thanks

I want to add that the issue I see is that when I click on the drill down report it prompts me to add my edaserve credentials. It should not be asking me for my credentials at this point because we have already passed it the IBIC_SERVER value of LAUNCH. This node contains the login and password in the admin console.

Every request that you send, including subsequent requests via drill-down, need to include the IBIC_server parameter. Those values are not maintained in the browser session unless you are explicitly handling them through cookies.

I added the IBIC_server parameter to the drill down and it worked great. Thanks
