Start a report with a specfic varinat

Question:
Hello Folks,
I would like it know if it is possible to start a report with a specfic varinat.
Detail:like I am in abap editor with report ZXXXXX open and it has one variant VARNAME..I would like if i press F8/Execute it should populate the variant VARNAME on selection screen. so that users can make some minor chages and run the report (I do not want to hardcode all values as defaluts...or shell program is not the option either)
Thanks in advance.
Shaun.
Answer:
Sure you can start a report with a varinat.
put the report on the tree and assign the varinat to it.

Answer:
Hi,
Have you try to create a transaction code for your program? In there you can specify which variant to run it with.

Answer:
i know this is old but, wanted to post the answer for future search results.
prefix the variant you create with "CUS&" , makes the variant transportable and, thereby, when you create you transaction with a variant to start with, the variant you created with the prefix "CUS&" will be in the dropdown and you wont get the error. "variants does not exists for screen ####" ....
