Allowing a Blank Parameter

[checkai]

After installing the updates for Daylight Savings Time on our Enterprise Server, we are seeing an issue with a report that asks for a string parameter value. A user should be able to leave it blank. However unless they type something in, even a space, the report will not be allowed to run. Is it possible to allow a blank value??

"...your mom goes to college..."

The common solution is to set a default value of All and code for it in the Report->Selection Formula->Record:

(
if {?MyParm} <> "All" then
{table.field} = {?MyParm}
else
if {?MyParm} = "All" then
true
)

-k

Shouldn't you be able to just leave it blank? My current work around is to put a space in as the default...
