I am familiar with setting birtParameters as input to sql query
statements, but you are saying that I could pass in entire datasets?
Could you direct me to anything that explains how to tell birt to use
that parameter for the dataset?

Are you saying that there are examples in the system of where the
minilanguage is used to retrieve data and that data is then passed to
a birt report? If that is the case can anyone help me find those
examples; I looked for all instances of "birt" but not sure that would
have helped me find it.

I had found a chapter on how to set up birt and how to setup a SQL
based data source. Do you know if there is help content that talks
about using other data sources or was that probably the chapter you
were thinking of?

Thanks again,
