i'm new to cognos and only have access to cognos connect. a drill through report is already created and i just want to specify parameters in a url to bypass prompts. text boxes i've figured out, but i can't seem to bypass drop-down prompts. i have specified the value of the drop-down entry i want, but the prompt still shows requesting data. do i need to specify the parameter in another way? i have set to prompt=false. any help is greatly appreciated.
