page without logging in as the user.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed Issue with Row Level Security and
@UserID - When using Row Level Security with the

to display the Header Text correctly when using the default
theme.
- Fixed RSExpress Parameter Problem - When
passing in a parameter with RSExpress the parameter was ignored and
the report would display the parameter page. This has been
fixed to use the parameter values passed in.
