Parameters in Jump Reports

Good morning all:
I am having an issue when jumping from one report to the next. The issue is
that the users want the reports to run without having to enter any
additional information but may want to change some of the parameters after
the report has run. I have accomplished the first part of the requirement
but the parameters are not showing themselves for the second part of the
requirement.
When I run the reports with out jumping to it the parameters are exposed and
the user can select them but when it is called from another report they
don't show at all.
Is there some setting somewhere that will force the parameters to show even
if they don't need to be modified?
Thanks,
AlNever mind mystery solved. It turns out that the parameter area of the
report is collapsed/hidden and the user will just have to expand it.
Thanks,
Al

parameter section is not collapsed.

expand the section.
