Did you try Subsets?

how would that help me in having type in prompt ??? ( Similar to Text Box prompt in CRN)...In the deployment option it displays only the root dimenstions and nothing else..

Oops, I've misread. I took type-in as of type IN. Sorry.

There was a technique which basically hacked the PP original prompt page. After all it is just an HTML page prepopulated by PPES. So if you knew what values you will be providing, you could create such a prompt page yourself.

If u have any details on the technique please pass it on to us..

I can't find it. Sorry. I've went through multpile backup CDs and drives to no avail. Here is waht I'd recomend: set one of your PP reports for PDF with filters and grab the source code of the web page which comes up. You should be able to reverse engineer it.
