Parameters to Subreports within a matrix

We have a recurring project status report that uses a matrix (each matrix group is for an individual project). The name of the project renders fine and displays in the group, but when we try to pass this same value as a parameter to a subreport (a graph) which we also want to display in the matrix the subreport is only renderd for the last instance of the matrix group (i.e. 4 of 4 has it but 1-3 show a blank field in the matrix).

I assume this has something to do with using parameters within the matrix control, but didn't find any posts about that.

I should add another way we've tried to do this is with a list instead of a matrix and it also fails in the same way (doesn't render all of the subreports).

Thanks for the help,

-p

This may be caued by an interaction between SQL and the Dundas control I'm using. I'm not 100% sure, but thought I'd post this if anyone out there is having a similar problem.

I'll post an answer if I figure out one.
