I imagine you're referencing that parameter in a field in your report somewhere. Possibly you've got an if...then...else type calculation .

When you delete a prompt, the associated filter does not automatically get deleted. Go to the query of your report and look at all the filters defined there - you will likely find one that still refers to your parameter. Delete this, and the generated prompt should disappear when you run the report.
