Hi,

Can you be a little more explicit about what you mean by "Prompt Selections"? Are you referring to prompt parameters that are requested as the MHT is created, or are you referring to Active Report Variables that are set when running the MHT in a browser or mobile device?

I assume you probably mean the latter? If so, one easy way to unset variables is to include a "Button" object (the very last item in the toolbox) on your page, and define the "Set Variable Values" property of the button to unset the Active Report Variables you need clearing.

Cheers!

MF.

Thanks for Responding my Post.
You are Correct I need the later one,
Do you mean "Setting Variable Values" property of the button to unset is Selecting each variable value as "Set to Empty"

Yep - choosing "Set to Empty" unsets the variables.
