How to tie ? to parameter name?

In the Visual Studio (2005) designer, I created a report, data source,
and dataset. The query is essentially Select * from Table1 where
ClientID = ?
Under Report Parameters I changed the name Parameter1 to CIDParam, so
that it is somewhat meaningful when I call it from code. But when I
try to preview the report, Studio complains that the query can't find
Parameter1. So how do I let Studio know that ? should look at
CIDParam?I go against Sybase and have to do this all the time (unfortunately). Go
back to the dataset tab, click on ..., parameters tab. Remap the query
paramters. Keep in mind that although RS creates the report parameters
automatically for you they are not the same thing. This is where they are
mapped.
Another time you will want to do this is if you want to use the same report
parameter multiple times. For instance you have a from and end date that is
used multiple times in your query.

Yes, that seems to have done it. Thanks.
