Hi out there,
I have a problem with the designer (2.6.1) when using scripted Data Sets (Java based event handler). Just try the following:
Create a new Sripted Data Set and add some Output Columns and a Parameter. Save your report.
Now add one more parameter and save again -> everything should work till now.
Now switch to the advanced properties tab of the dataset and add an event handler (must not be a real event handler, can be something like "test"). Save your report.
Now add one more parameter to your dataset and leave the dialog. Try to save, it will not work. Save is disabled and will never be enabled again until you close and open the report again.
Solution: Open your report, make some change e.g. to a table (save button will be enabled) and add the parameter after this. Than you can save your report.
Does anyone know a solution / fix for this? Will I have to make some changes to my scipted Data Set or is it a bug?

Thanks a lot

Mark

Mark,

This sounds like a bug. Can you open a bugzilla entry for it?
