Hi,

Cognos 10 BI is designed as a read-only reporting tool, not as a data entry and maintenance utility. You could perhaps achieve your objective by creating a stored procedure in your database to store the value and calling this from your report, but to be honest it isn't supported and the Cognis BI tool isn't designed to do this from within a report.

Cheers!
