<p>If it makes sense, you could create a Master Detail style report where users can get a summary list and use the URL feature in BIRT to pass a parameter to a detail report. A simple example is at:</p>
<p><a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/files/file/520-sample-drill-down-birt-reports/'>http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/files/file/520-sample-drill-down-birt-reports/</a></p&gt;
<p> </p>
<p>...or if it is just one big list, then use a parameter to pass in the desired start row and pass that along to the query using the LIMIT or FETCH commands depending on your database.  So the first page will have 20 rows for example with a link at the bottom to get page 2, that runs the report again passing 21 as a parameter so 21-40 can display.</p>
