Title: Suppress the cover page with a prompt?
Post by: dinos on 04 Feb 2009 04:20:38 PM
Hello,

New to Cognos.  Am trying to see if I can introduce a prompt on the prompt page that allows users to decide whether they wish to include the cover page as part of a report result.  Is this at all possible, and if so, how can I do it?

Cheers

Create a Checkbox prompt with the following options

Static choices Use Value : 1
Static choices Display Value : Display Cover Page
Set the Required Property to No

Create a Condition variable(Boolean)
ParamValue('propmtname') = '1'


Select the Cover Page and in properties set the condition variable to Render Variable property.
Title: Worked like a charm...cheers!
