Previewing a report for the first time
When you preview a report for the first time, the Enter Prompt Values dialog
box appears, prompting you for a value.
• If you specified a default value when you created the parameter field, the
program will use that value unless you specify a new one.
• If you did not specify a default value, the program will not refresh the data
until you supply a new value.
Note:
If the parameter is a string value type, without a default value, and the "Allow
discrete values" field is True, an empty string appears.
