Cascading Parameters not showing all values

I have been reading the forums, and I haven't yet found an answer to my question. This is the first time I have created a Cascading Parameter, so please forgive any misunderstanding.

I am on Crystal XI

All record information is in the SAME SQL view...no other tables or views are being used/joined.

Parameter A has 7 distinct values (dynamic), but only one is showing up as availible when the report is being run.... WHY?!?!? More importantly, how do I fix it? (I have used "browse data" to confirm the 7 values)

Parameters B, C, D are all acting the way they should assuming that their options change when I get all 7 values in Parameter A. Currently the options are correct for the ONE choice showing for Parameter A.

Help? Anyone? Bueller?

Thanks in advance!
 
So B,C,D are all additional cascading parameters? The resulting list of values cannot be greater than 1000, so if these additional levels result in more than that if more than one A value had been selected, then only one will show for selection. Is this a possibility in your situation? If so, there is a registry key that must changed in order to allow a larger pick list.

Correct. B,C,D are additional cascades. They should not produce more than 1000 options.

I did change my regitry settings anyway....but it did not produce any change in results.
 
I wonder if one of your later parameters only has values for certain values of A or if one of the fields used for a later parameter picklist can be null. I would test my removing one level at a time--or starting over and adding one level at a time.
