Paramter Reports

Hi

I have two queries on Parameter reports.

I have a list of about 200 items in the paramter default values. Rather than scrolling through the list, is there anyway I can begin typing and the list will begin to sort based on the letters I am typing and narrow down the scroll list. Kind of like intelligent typing.

Also, I am using the output of the parameters as Group headings on my report. Within these groups are contained items (documents as it happens) It works OK in that all individual items appear on the report and are grouped nicely, but the group name (taken from the parameter) is always the same ie the first one selected. If I have two or more parameters this is a problem!

thanks
 
Post the version of your software.

In CR 10 a string with default values will scroll the list as letters are typed.

As for your grouping, you can't group data based on parameters, they are unrelated. If you're displaying the parm choices in the group section, then that's relatively simple, although the type of parameter makes a lot of difference.

To display parameter choices made for a multiple value string use:

join({?MyParameter},",")
