What did you mean? You want to display the values of those prompts in the report?

no

so that user can select license_no and any one of date_prompt to run the report

Are you using a date prompt on your prompt page? What is not displaying?

cognostechie

Make the Date prompts optional. That way, the user would not have to enter values in all Date Prompts.

The prompts would dispkay the values on the Prompt Page if a data item is associated with it. If your problem is to select any one of the Date Prompts, then use conditions like 'If ParamDisplayValue(?start_dt?) is not null then ...

You can create 3 lists/crosstabs and use conditional layout to hide/show thru a render variable depending on which prompt is selected. The filters would be according to different Date Prompt in those different reports.
