I don't think that you can enforce this out of the box. I wonder if an XML hack could do this for you..

Maybe something has changed in Cognos8, but in ReportNet the default value property for a multiselect prompt is not (necessarily) a single item, it is a list which you can populate with as many values as you like by clicking the Add button in the default values window.
