Hi, Can you share us more specifics? I beleive both your query have the same type of Charateristic on which the Web report is generated. Consider using a common variable; If not so (i.e. entirely different char types), else if your requirement is to pass complete variable's data from one variable to another, you may try using exits; or better approach use any RRI functionality to pass variables from one query to another based on an event (say button click) in WAD. If you are not interested in either cases, say you want part of the data to be transferred? Like say, user enters 09.2009 & in Variable 2 you need only 2009? If you need such an approach; one: use simple option titled 'Copy Personalization Data from This Variable' under Defaults tab of the variable. Use some offset limitations incase you need to limit the data part using replacement path. Keep the variable optional for input. If you want to use the same personalization data in more than one variable, in the input field, specify the names of the variables under which the personalization data is stored. If not okay, then you may consider using customer exit varaibles. Thanks!
