Runtime prompts in RR 5.0a?

Post by nyNestor_(Guest) » Mon May 07, 2001 11:16 am

Hi all! Is there any way to promt a user to insert a value at runtime directly through "rrun.exe" 5.0a? I^ve read the tips section and see that their is a way for versions 6 and higher, but there is no documentation for 5.x. The tip used in the PDF file shows "userRI=?Enter userVal" the ? generating the promt in the control file. Does version 5.0 have such a feature?____Thanks in advance :)

Version 5 does support the RIPARAM()function in calculated expressions however you cannot set this value to a ? in your control file to prompt a user for input as you can in later releases.__In Version 5 you needed to write your own user prompting interface.____Kathleen__R&R Support
