Comparioson Reports

Hi There
My client has asked that there existing SQL reports be used for Comparison Reports.
So for example at the moment - they Select a Company site and a department to create a report.
Now they want to have have a another site on the report - like a multipage report in MS Access reports.
Any ideas folks?Reporting services (currently) does not support a multi-select parameter.. I
suspect that will be coming soon..
In the mean time, you may make a parameter which is a text field, and
require users to type in a (comma) delimited list which you use in a select
statement..
If there is a MAX of 2 sites on a report, you might create 2 parameters and
allow a single select on each... This feels a little kludgy, but maybe your
users would accept it..
