What are you trying to do? Prompt button is a button. You have to click it to rerun the page. Hope it helps. :)

Hi ToriBurns,
When any one drags the prompt button, it looks like button only, nothing else. And i know that , to enable any button functionality , we must click it, otherwise how it will work.
In addition to this, Prompt button has 4 types, viz; cancel, next, back, finish. I know how to use these button types.

but when i want to use repormpt button , page looks like refreshing, but selected items remain same as it is, nothing happens.
so , tell me what i m missing

Thanks

Hi Inam,

repormpt button ?? Or is it reprompt button?.

If you want to set the value of prompts to initial value after the page refreshed, I don't have any idea on how to that. I hope you would be able to find the answer. :)

Cheers.

Hi Inam,

Where are you doing this - on a prompt page or on a report page? Setting the behaviour of your prompt button to Reprompt should simply submit whatever value or values have already been selected. What are you seeing?

I use the reprompt button when I am creating a cascading prompt and I might want to send more than one parameter value to a third prompt.

You shud understand the point. If you are not able to tell, how to  fix the issue, then why u wasting ur time.

Now u shud not point out short cut words like  shud, u,ur etc. u shud think that ,msg is conveyed to u or not. that's it.
I think u r not professional.

I think that Cognoise is largely a very pleasant community where there are many nice people who share ideas and help each other. I believe Tori was trying to help and you responded inappropriately. Just because someone doesn't give you exactly what you are looking for doesn't give license to abuse their attempt.

I think it is Tori to whom you owe an apology. This isn't the first time you've been rude or taken "lightly this forum and its valuable and respected people".
