Calling a report from another - Setting variables

Hi
I'm calling a report from another. The report I'm calling has a request form, wich I set as unable in the RUN command. But I need to set some variables to filter a table, etc.
Lets say report A calls report B.
In report B, I set a variable X in C/AL Globals. Then, I define a function InitX(value) wich does:
InitX( Value : Text[30])
X:= Value;
I use the InitX function from my report A:
txtFilter := '010119..310119';
R50042.InitX(txtFilter);
// And I see X with his proper value
REPORT.RUN(50042,FALSE,FALSE);
Then, in my table's event OnPreDataItem I want to filter it using X:
"Cust. Ledger Entry".SETFILTER("Posting Date",X);
And X is empty
How can I set a variable from the outside, and use it later in the report?
Thanks

You have to call the report by the variable you created earlier:
R50042.RUN5 -
Set UserRequestPage = No in report's property then use Job Queue to run your report as as automatically.5

Thank you so much, AK. It worked beautifully
Now, even if I set USEREQUESTFORM to false, I have to push "Accept" button when running my form. I want it to run in a NAS proccess, and need it to be autonomous. How can I avoid this behavior?
