I’ll probably fail at explaining this, but I have a dataset tag looking for any production lines that have an end time equal to a certain time. When this event happens it gets passed to a report.

Within the report, a table group is made so that for x amount of lines, x amount of pages are created with the data from the dataset that pertains to the line.

I would like to show tag history (by graph) for a couple tags related to that line as well. Is it possible to have the tag history reference made up of a parameter that points to a column in the dataset? I am thinking the column could have the full tag path for the historical tag. Am I making sense? Thanks for all the help in advance.

Have you looked at the IA University videos for it yet?

Also try reading the same section in the help manual.

Thanks for the extra push. It did spark me to revisit a nested query which may work in my particular cause. Come Monday I’ll see where I get before questioning again!
