[CLOSED] Cascading prompt
My situation is a little different. I want an initial prompt that will ask the user to select the country they would like to run the report for, then, based on their selection from a listbox, I want to then display another page that has all of the prompts required to run for that country (the number of prompts are different for each country). Can this be done?

Actually there are at least 2 ways. You can execute a fex that determines what country was entered and then executes an HTML parameter page based on that OR you can have hidden parameters on the same screen that un-hide depending on the selection. The later takes quite a bit of Javascript programming.

Your first suggestion is what I would like to try, but what is the command to execute an HTML launch page from within a fex?

Thanks for your input, but this is a moot issue now. We will code separate fex's for each conutry.
