Passing in own Variable to print

I want to display some of the information not in the datasource selection but
through application passing in information. For example: personName,
reportName (dynamical defined depending on which button user click) and etc.
These variable only use in header or footer.
How can I pass these information to the report viwer? Any help is greatly
appreciated.I've done similar things using report parameters.

I tried adding parameters, it seems to automatically pop up to ask for input
value, not allowing me to passing in value programmatically.
