Title: Value Prompt
Post by: patel45 on 18 Mar 2012 09:56:07 AM
Hey Guys 

Is it Possible in Report Studio to select values from Value prompt and inserting  into separate container, the only reason for this requirement is that user can know which values have been selected. I tried this using select and search prompt but user doesnot want to type and search. Users wants a drop down box and select the value and insert into a separate container. Can anybody help me with this.

Thanks,
Patel

You can display the selected values using Layout calculation.

Yes ! HBP is true . You can use Layout calculation for the purpose... you just need to put ParamDisplayValue(Parameter Name) Function inside the expression part.
If you want to show the use value of the parameter then use ParamValue(Parameter Name) Function.
