Title: Text Box prompt - Use value and Display value
Post by: juffin on 17 Nov 2013 01:04:03 AM
Hello...
As in Value prompt is there any option to give Use value and display value for Text box prompt ? (other than assigning a Use value using constructs)
Thanks
Jf

A text box prompt is not going to present a user with any choices to select from, so the concept of use and display has no meaning for this type of prompt control. It is meant to allow a user to type in any text value which then becomes the value associated with a parameter that you can then apply as needed in your report.
