Put two value prompts and make SelectUI as Radio button group.

Then use Render variable and capture the Text box value to this and do the formatting accrodingly.


Thanks.

I'm not quite clear on what you're tyring to do here.  What are you using the radio buttons for?  Are you trying to set up a radio button prompt that will allow you to choose whether to filter on Region or on Country?

Ok.. it's bit triky as we have to use Javascript. I was thinking like it's on Main page.

Here we go__

1) Create one value prompt name it as 'choice'. The parameter for this is P_choice
2) create two radiobutton group value prompts. the parameters P_Region, P_Country
3) create boolean render variable for Region and Country prompts seperately.
   for Region.... render variable say V_Region
    script would be___
   

Code Select Expand

ParamDisplayValue('P_choice')='Region'
   similar for Country
     

Code Select Expand

ParamDisplayValue('P_choice')='Country'
4) create an HTML item just beside to Choice prompt
    give the script as

Code Select Expand

      <Script>
         function my_onchange()
          {
            SetPromptControl('reprompt')
           }

         document.forms["formWarpRequest"].elements["_oLstChoiceschoice"].onchange = my_onchange
      </Script>


Now run the report. It should work.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.

If I read that correctly all you really need to do is make the text box prompts optional.
Then the reports will only filter on the item that has been entered and ignore the blank prompt.

You don't need a radio button prompt to declare which of the two prompts is the active one.
