Hi,
try to following instruction from
post "Re: How to set date parameter as today" (15/03/2007 21.32)
I'd like to set a date rport paramenter to the first day of the current
year.

I wrote the code in Initialize event:

if (params["paramStartDate"].value == null)
{
var cal = java.util.Calendar.getInstance();

var parseMe = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("MM/d/y");

//Used for YTD. This will set the date range from beginning of
the year to today
params["paramStartDate"].value = parseMe.parse("01/01/" +
cal.get(java.util.Calendar.YEAR));
}

but my field is blank.
I attach my example file.

Any suggestion?

Thank you
nicola

Hi Nicola

I have tried your case, it works well on my build(BIRT2.2.0 v20070717).
The params["MyDate"] display the fisrt day of currect year. What's your
build version?
BTW, if you want to display the date as 01/01/2007, you can try to format
it using the Format DateTime in Property editor.

Regards!

Hi,
what I don't see is the date in input parameter dialog.
I'd like my users to see the date and modify it if needed.

My version of birt is 2.2.0 (one of the first release, 20070620).

Thx,
nicola

When preview, you can see a "Show Report Parameters" in preview page.
Click that button, the parameter dialog pops up. There are two selection:
Input value and Null value. So the user can specify what they want.

Hi :)
I saw that preview, but is it possible to see in "input value" a default
date calculated via script?
So far I couldn't write inside it.

Bye,
Nico
