Printing the "Perameter Settings" on a report

I have reports in which I pull from a range of Dates (Start Date and End Date)
I am wondering if there is a way to show on the report somewhere which
Dates have been selected? That way when I have printed off a report from
sometime in the previous week, I can look at it and know the date ranges that
I entered in. Is this possible?

You can use the parameter names on the report, just as if they were fields.

For example, if you parameters are named [Start Date] and [End Date], you
could add a text box with Control Source of:
="From " & Format([Start Date], "Short Date") & " to " & Format([End
Date], "Short Date")
