Ok, now it's clear what you want to achieve.
I suggest doing:
1. change where clause to:
WHERE reservation.reservation_date = :p_def_res_date
or
WHERE trunc(reservation.reservation_date) = :p_def_res_date
only if your allow to store time information in
reservation.reservation_date column
2. create dataset parameter
name: p_def_res_date
data type: Date Time
direction: Input
Default Value: new Date()
Don't worry about default value, it will be overwritten by reports
parameter value. It is needed to show Preview Results only.
Don't forget about right order of parameter as they appear in the query
text.
3. create report parameter
name: p_res_date
data type: DateTime
display type: Text Box
Default value: 05/21/2004
Format string as: Custom (you have to change it - press Change... button
and enter format for example: dd-MM-yyyy
or any other that is popular in your country)
And that's it. You have to bind your report parameter with dataset
parameter. Do it on your report item binding tab.
