Report Parameters at runtime

Rick · Post by **Rick** » Tue Feb 22, 2011 3:30 pm

I was just wondering if you could provide any update on when we can expect the ability to request user input to parameters at runtime? I was reading through some old posts and it looked like it was going to be soon (or even already done).

Thanks!

Hello, Rick

You can use the Request from User property of the report variables. In this case, the values for the variables will be requested in the report viewer before rendering.

Thank you.

Thanks for the info! Is there a way to then subsequently pass the parameter value into the MYSQL data selection at runtime? or some other way that I can gather information at runtime and then use it to filter the query that I run on the database?

Thanks!

Hello, Rick

You can read about the parameters in the SQL on our website:

Also in the near future we plan to implement the report variables functionality in SQL queries.

Thank you.
