Hi,

 

It seems that your are using IIS7 url rewrite module.

 

I sugguest you keep the querystring like this:

(maybe you need modify the pattern a little to make it works)

 

<rule name="Report_Create_Area_Rewrite" stopProcessing="true">
    <match url="^report/create/area/("d+)/?(\?([^\?]*))?"/>
    <conditions>
      <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true"/>
      <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true"/>
    </conditions>
    <action type="Rewrite" url="components/report/create.aspx?areaID={R:1}&{R:3}"/>
</rule>

 

Regards,

Terry
