    I'm pretty new to reporting server, so please forgive me if this is a dozy question to ask. I am using RS2005
    I want to write a report giving the user some data dependent on 2 paramerters they enter, startDate and EndDate. I have the query working correctly (select * from datatable where date >= @StartDate and date <= @EndDate), but when I preview my report, I get the errors:
    [rsInvalidReportParameterDependency] The report parameter ‘StartDate’ has a DefaultValue or a ValidValue that depends on the report parameter “StartDate”. Forward dependencies are not valid.
    [rsInvalidReportParameterDependency] The report parameter ‘StartDate’ has a DefaultValue or a ValidValue that depends on the report parameter “EndDate”. Forward dependencies are not valid.
    [rsInvalidReportParameterDependency] The report parameter ‘EndDate’ has a DefaultValue or a ValidValue that depends on the report parameter “EndDate”. Forward dependencies are not valid.
    Build complete -- 3 errors, 0 warnings
    What am I doing wrong?

    Welcome to the forums.
    THis means the @variables must be declared before passing report parameters, you can avoid this by:
    1. Go to the Layout tab
    2. Select the Report object in the properties window
    3. Go to the ReportParameters property and edit
      • Move Enddae above Startdate using the arrows
