Drillthrough parameters didn''t appear in the report

  • Hi all,

    I have created the ad-hoc report via Report Builder. I would like to define some parameters to my report, so I go to Report then select filter and double click at "Year" field which i would like it to be the parameter in my report. The problem is that it does not allow me to drillthrough to view the list of year in my data. When I run the report, the parameter appears in textbox which I have to fill the data myself. Is there anyway I could fix this kind of problem?

    Many thanks in advance.

  • You need to query the underlying table to retrieve the year and populate the listbox. So you create parameter, and then set its datasource to be the query SELECT DISTINCT YEAR FROM <tablename> in the properties of the parameter.

    Hope this helps.

  • Thanks, Richard

    Now I finally find the solution for this problem. As I'ved used an olap cube as the data source, when I performed Dimension processing, I have to define the "Interselection" of attribute's properties to be "DropDown". Therefore, when I use this cube to generate a model for Report Builder. The parameter can be drop down.

    Enjoy ur day
