how can i get the value of text1 at the request form/option form ?

You cannot get it from the report, you need to pass it to the report when calling it (and you will need to call it through C/AL code, not through the button properties).

kine ,

can you teach me how to do so ?

kine

1) All depends on details, if the value just filter the records or how it is used.
2) I recommend some C/AL development class or learning from manuals, collegues, books, internet
3) Look e.g. on some reports which are started with filled filters or some specific values
4) Complexity of the task depends on the point 1 answer...

kine,

i have created a Form : Delivery Order (Form No. 50031) . it will listing the records of Table : Warehouse Shipment ( Table No. 7320) according the value of textbox, and i have assign the variable : CurrentDate ( Data Type : Date) for this textbox ! The default vale for this textbox is workdate + 1D, and the user can change/enter the value as they need. This textbox is used for SETRANGE of the field (Shipment Date) of Table 7320 . This Form is design for Warehouse to arrange the truck team. And i have added a Menu Items button (cause the Warehoue should have several kinds of report they will make the choose). Now , i have create a Report : Delivery List (Report No. 50032) for the printing out the listing records according the Option Form. This Option Form have two textboxs ( FrDate & ToDate) , it let the user to print the records between this two dates.
The question is ... how can i get the default value of Frdate as same as CurrentDate ( the textbox in Form 50031)? means if the user have changed the value of CurrentDate , and FrDate will get the change too !

kine

You need to call the report through variable of type report. Add new function into the report e.g. with name SetDate with one parameter of type date. This function will assign the parameter into your variable FrDate.

In the calling form you will have something like:

  myReportVar.SetDate(CurrentDate);
  myReportVar.RUNMODAL;
