passing form variables to populate Report Param..

Is this possible? All of our users are required to login to our website in order to access their applications they have particular access to. is there a way to pass the same from variable to the first Report parameter. Currently i have it set up (development environment) that all report parameters are visible when we go to the web page to access report. I only want certain parameters available based on who is logged on, but i do not want to build 20 different reports to accomplish this.
Any help would be greatly appreciatedInstead of creating many different report you may take a look at creating
linked reports. Linked reports carry their own security settings, parameter
settings but share the same report definition. For example, you can provide
default value for a parameter and declare it read-only on a linked report.
Users who have access to this linked report won't be able to set the value
of that parameter.
