Hi,

first you have to create a Parameter at the "Edit Data Set"-Dialog. Open the dialog and choose "Parameters" at the left side. Then click the "New..." Button. Enter a Name for this parameter at the first line. Then you have to think if you want to use a reportparameter directly, or not. If want to use it directly choose this parameter in the "Linked To Report Parameter" ComboBox. Otherwise you can enter a Default Value (Constant or JavaScript Syntax). You also have to choose the right Data Type!

If you have done this, you can use this parameter by entering a "?" in your Query.

SELECT * FROM table WHERE column = parameter

for parameter you have to use the "?"

SELECT * FROM table WHERE column = ?

I hope you understood my explanation, and it helped you. Otherwise let me know.

Please let me know, what your SQL Query was. Which datatype you have chosen? (Is it the same datatype than the column has?
