Capturing Report Parameters

I am trying to capture the selected report parameters for a generated
report prior to it being sent to the server. The intent is to use
these values to set as defaults for the saved linked report. I have
no problem retrieving the list of valid values but don't know if the
values selected in the ReportView can be captured. Any Ideas?

It's not very likely that this is possible (in terms of capturing the
report parameter on the client-side). You could try using Javascript;
but, this is a long shot. If you are just trying to pass the parameter
value selected to another report (via Jump to Report, Jump to URL,
etc) You can just set the report to jump to (or the URL of the report)
and then select the parameter to pass to it (or in the case of using a
URL, append the Parameter's value). To access the parameter's value
you would set the Parameter to an expression similar to:
=Parameters!Param1Name.Value
If using a URL, a similar expression to this should work.
="http://ServerX/reportserver?/SomeReportsDirectory/
ReportName&rs:Command=Render&Param1=" + Parameters!Param1.Value
Hope this helps.
