A parameter values file has a dependency on the BIRT design file (.rptdesign) from which a user created the parameter values file. To run a parameter values file, it must have a dependency on the BIRT design file from which a user created the parameter values file. To run a parameter values file, a user must have execute and one of either read, secure read, or visible privileges on the BIRT design file on which the parameter values file depends. iHub updates the dependency information if a user moves the BIRT design to a different location on the Encyclopedia volume.

On Files and Folders, Properties—Dependencies displays the location of the BIRT design executable file, as shown in Figure 4‑12.
