Actuate parameter in report title/textbox

Hi All,

A bit of a basic question for you guys, I'm afraid.

I've written a report in SQL which runs fine in Actuate. However, I want to add a title to it that includes the value of my date parameters - e.g. My data for dates between :start_parameter and :end_parameter.

I figured I could write: "My data for dates between " & start_parameter etc etc...

But it doesn't recognise the parameter. Can someone tell me how to make the parameter visible to the textbox?

Hope that's not too vague.

Thanks! :)
 
Hi,
I don't know if you have found the solution for it or not, yet...
But in the later case, I tried referencing the parameter by it's name in the text control box WITH OUT prefxing the : symbol and it worked for me.
