Webi XI target query prompt

I have created a report with hyperlink to target report containing a filter prompt :-

="<a href=“http://servername:8080/businessobjects/enterprise11/desktoplaunch/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=7114&sDocName=VIN detail&sType=wid&IsSVIN=”+[Vin]+"">"+[Vin]+""

The target query opens but instead of the filter value being passed automatically to the prompt and the report running the prompt box is displayed for user entry of the prompt.

Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong please?

I have searched through the Web Intelligence and XI forums and cannot find anything to help - the hyperlink appears to work in that the target report is opened and the URL contains the filter value.

The prompt name in the hyperlink and target report match but the target prompt screen opens and waits for user entry - could there be some setting missing or incorrect on the target report - I have tried different settings but the result is always the same.

This is now working, having added ‘&sRepoType=Corporate’ into the command.
