Crystal XI parameter dropdown

[Injun]

I am using Crystal XI and using the dynamic list of values from a stored procedure for the parameter field . So I get this interface with a dropdown where all the values are populated and the user can choose the value and run the report.
But it doesnt let the user input any values on his own , basically it is a readonly dropdown . Is there anyway I can have the option for the user to input values as well as using values in the dropdown? I am not creating an asp/aspx page here . I only use the crystal report XI to develop this. Thats where I have to figure out a way to make the dropdown take user inputs as well.

thx

Hi,
One of the options with the Parameter is to allow 'custom values' ..This permits a user to input a value instead of choosing one of the default ones..

Edit the parameter and be sure the 'Custom Values' is set to True..

I am not using the Static Parameter. I have set it as dynamic and there I dont have this option available .
Does that mean I have to make my parameter static. But my database changes many times a day and keeping it static doesnt make sense . Occassionally my user does want the capability to input value rather than scrolling down and looking for it.Any ideas?
thx
