Thanks - it is working beautifully now. J Pratt

I have tried doing that, but I'm not sure which bit I'm looking for. My report starts: - - - - - - - - The mark date data is also very complicated, as it is includes a time. Mark Date in the main report is recorded as either: 2009-10-01T09:00:00+01:00 2009-10-01T13:00:00+01:00 I have tried changing in my original attempt to , but it still ignored it. J Pratt

I'm having great trouble making commandreporter do what I want it to. I have got it running reports, but it does not use the parameters I try to give it. This is what I have rtied to use: C:\Program Files\SIMS\SIMS .net>commandreporter /user:MYUSERNAME /password:MYPASSWORD /report:"JPs Todays Register" /params:"2010-01-15" /output:"C:\current register.txt" The report runs fine, but it doesn't use the parameter (instead it gives me the register for 5/10/09 as that is the default day in the prompt when you run the report in sims). Any idea how I can make it use my parameter to limit it to today's register. PS I'm generating the above line in VBA from Microsoft Access so I can import the data to a database to process it.
