Set up a parameter value based on another parameter

[twister]

Hi guys, How do I set up a parameter value based on another parameter in a prompt page?

I have 2 parameters param1 and param2. Based on the param1 value, I need to set up param2 value. I am trying to overocme a limitation in DQM and I need to do it this way to make it work.

Say for example,
If (?param1?='Total')
then ('A')
else ('B')

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

It is bit difficult to use cascading prompt. Reason is, the second prompt is completely derived from first prompt's value and the user shouldn't see the second prompt at all. The second prompt value will be used for some processing.Any other way?

If the second prompt is never visible and is simply used for other processing, why does it have to be a prompt? Why not just a filter expression?
