Hi Ido,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I do use a stored procedure as my datasource for my main report.
But for Selection Criteria prompt, I want to use either an Excel File or a SQL Table to select values from.
If I can use an Excel file, no problem (but I'm not sure it can be done).
But if I need to use an SQL table, I must generate it from the Excel file BEFORE the user selects his value in the prompt.
The problem is that I don't want all the hundreds of values to be listed in the combo box, but only those values the user is interested in.
And each user has his own preferences.
So, I leave it to him to type his values in the Excel file, and these same values will appear in the combos in Selection Criteria.
I need to generate the sql table from which the combo derives BEFORE the user selects from the combo
Thanks
Leon lai
