[Emerald] einvoice.rpt -> invoicep.rpt Subreport Linking

The linking for subreport invoicep.rpt (Invoices.InvoiceID ->
Payments.InvoiceID) isn't working for me because my Payments table has all
NULLs in the InvoiceID field. I am assuming that the subreport was linked
incorrectly.

After changing the linking to 'InvoiceItems.PaymentID -> Payments.PaymentID'
for the subreport, I appear to be getting accurate results.

Also, with the original linking, I noticed that there was a subreport
parameter '?Pm-Payments.InvoiceID??02' defined. When I changed the linking,
the only choice in the parameter list was '?Pm-InvoiceItems.PaymentID'. The
??02 is of particular interest. Does this limit the number of records that
the subreport will pull in or something like that?

Again, this seems to be working, but it concerns me that it so different
than the original linking. Do I have anything to be concerned about?
