Multi-DataPage Deployment and Report Printout: is still valid?

[vidierre]

I want to make a web page where search fields selection is common between more datapages. 

I tried to follow what is explained in this old video (2014 , and some parameters doesn't exist anymore), but I wasn't able to make it working. To test I followed these steps:

1- I build , as suggested, a "dummy" insert datapage. At the end here there is only one virtual field to select a Company with a dropdown. It lookup into the Company table showing the Company name and rturning the Company_ID used as parameter [@Company_ID] (is this difference with video the culprit?)

2- The second datapage is a Tabular Report from the Document table containing documents for each Company. Each record has a Company_ID field. The search i done using the Company_ID field hidden receiving the [@Company_ID] as parapeter.

When I use them into a webpage the Tabular Report shows all records regardingless what I do into the search form.

Any one has done this?
