I've created a prompt page that allows the user to select a Company and then a Location. Since there are so many numbers for both, I used a data item to join the Value and the Description together. I've done this for both Company and Location. Its works perfect, ex the listbox for company now has (4892 - ABC Company XZY).

Here's my problem, on the report page I want to re-display in the heading what the user selected (parameter) but here I don't want to display the (4892 - ABC Company XZY) because it's to long. Here I want only the 4892.
If I use a ParamDisplayValue('Company Selection') is gives me all of it. How can I change it to display only the 4892.

I hope I explained that correctly
 
Use the ParamValue instead , in case you use just the code as the use value for the prompt..
