Get last find request

Featured Replies

I have a database from which I produce a number of summary reports. Because of the dynamic nature of these reports I can perform finds based on various selected parameters and then the reports reflect summaries based on the found set.

However...

When viewing a summary report, one has no way of knowing what the last find request was that the report was based on (unless one carried out the find personally of course).

What I want to know is if there is a function such as (for example) "Get(LastFindParameter)" that I could then append the report title with to indicate what parameter the report is based on?

For example I have a report titled "Summary Session Statistics" which lists means and standard deviations for various dBase categories. I would like to place a field immediately after the report title so that when I perform a find on (for example) whether the Sessions in question are "Primary" (or "Secondary" or "Tertiary" or...about a dozen other categories based on various fields...), I can:

If(Total_Count = Found_Count; ""; "by " & Get(LastFindParameter))

I can of course produce a separate report for each category, but I would end up with too many reports...

Any suggestions?
