    For instance, you could base the report on the SQL statement

    to the DetailFields property. In this case, the parameter will be filled from
    the corresponding master field.<br/>

    master field.<br/>
    If a string in this property denotes both a column name and a parameter name, it
    is undefined which way it is interpreted, but implementations of the service are required
