prompt (parameter) position

RS 2000 - I have 3 parameters in my report. I would like the 3rd parameter to
be positioned directly under the 2nd parameter so it makes more sense to the
user than when the parameters are displayed by default left-right top-bottom
and the 3rd parameter ends up under the 1st parameter. What controls the
position/location of the prompts? Do I have any control over it?Sorry, the builtin report viewers don't provide control over the parameter
positions.

parameters?

You could write your own web page with the top half showing the
parameters the way you want and show the report in the bottom half
using URL access. When you submit the parameters you could dynamically
change the report so the parameters are populated accordingly.
I have done similar things in RS2000 but you need to know some ASP
