Why won't a regular prompt that allows the user to select which type work?

In your diagnosis dimension table, create a new field called Diagnosis Type (or group).  For all the diabetic ICD9's, label this field Diabetes.  That way they can filter off of Diagnosis Type rather then individually selecting them.

Either that, or do a between statement for the 250's and then an or for the random codes.

hi i didnt want to do a prompt as the  are 1000's of diagnosis and users would have to scroll through the big list to locate them. Are you saying i ould use a between statement for the first diagnosis name and the last and it will pick up all in between.

thanks bunker

hi twlarsen

i am not fulling confortable with making modifications in the framework pacakge as this is failry new to me also. is there a way i could make a copy of this package and create this new field and called diagnosis - goupr each grouping for things such as diagnosis,cancer,etc an go from 1000's of diagnosis to maybe a 100. AT that time i would like to be able to test against the report (sdummary ) i am trying to develeop
