Formula default parameter value

[jleboeuf]

Hi,

First I'm using CR 11 and what I would like to do is assign a different default value on a parameter depending on a previous parameter choice.

Can this be done ?

Thanks

I'm pretty certain you can't. You can get the same effect, using a formula field that assigns different values on the basis of another parameter.

Can you give an example of what you mean?

Something like

If @Param2 = "Default"
  then if Param1 = "Chalk" then "Marble"
  else if Param1 = "Cheese" then "Chedder"
else @Param2

This won't make any difference to what the parameters show, but you can set a default value in the parameters.
