Custom Prompt Parameter

Post by mhsabado_(Guest) » Wed Aug 15, 2007 9:37 pm

Hi,____Is it possible to override RI_LOSCOPE and RI_HISCOPE from the control table with the values of custom prompt fields? For example I have START and END parameter fields with "?Enter Start" and "?Enter End" values respectively. ____Thanks,__Mario__

You would need to create two parameterr fields and then select them as the high and low values.____Then when the report is run, the user would see the parameterr prompt screen where they could enter the values that would be passed to the scope.____Kathleen__R&R Support

__To clarify things, for sure I can use the values of the custom prompts I^ve created via RIPARAM() and use it in my query/filter expressions. Is it possible to override LoScope()/HiScope() at runtime? I^m currently using interface in my application and assign it to RI_LOSCOPE/RI_HISCOPE but I want to avoid this if possible to make my reports a bit more independent.____Thanks for any hint.
