When I am trying to add dynamic parameters to my crystal report I get the follwoing error messge:

"operation failed; You do not have edit right on: "dynamic cascading prompts". (MDS.DLL)"

I logged in with my windows AD account. I am running Crystal reports 2008.The parameters are created in Business View Manager.

Are you using prompts that already exist in the repository or are you trying to create new ones? If you're trying to create new ones, you are MUCH better off trying to create them in the BVM than from Crystal. You can make your SQL much more efficient because you don't have to include any tables/fields that are in your report that aren't needed for the prompt.

If you're using existing prompts, are you editing the prompt in any way after you add it to your report? If so, that might be what's causing your error.

Your user ID has not been granted access rights to edit prompts in the Business View Manager. Rights to BVM are set in the BVM, not in the CMC. If you're not the system admin for your BO/CRS system, you'll need to get with the admin to have the rights set up.
