Title: DATE PROMPT
Post by: sspk on 19 Feb 2008 03:44:42 PM
HI ALL,
I have a data item by the name "follow-up_date" which has very few values and most of them nulls.when i trying to keep a date prompt(with range) on that data_item and running the report it's not displaying any values.The end user wants it date prompt(with range selection).How to do this  :(

I got it...
if any body wants it this is the way
make the filter as optional and prompt like this
follow-up_date in_range ?MYDATEPROMPT?
