If I create a Report in MS-Project using Interactive Filters, is there any
way to capture the date values entered when prompted into the Header of the
Resulting Report?

For example, if I want to show tasks that are expected to be completed
between two dates, I would prompt for the start and end dates. This is not a
problem.

However, I would also like to display the values of these dates in the
Header of the Report for clarity.

Are these date parameters, which must be stored in some fashion to create
the report population, also available for reporting?

CPodd,
Unfortunately the dates (or any other data) entered into an interactive
filter resides in the filter and is not available for other uses. You
could set up a couple of spare fields (perhaps date fields) where the
data could be entered and then have the filter use those fields. Since
they are fields, they would then also be available for other things.

Hope this helps.
