bypassing the webfocus autoprompt screen?
Is there a way to make webfocus assume a FOC_NONE when I drill into a report rather than auto prompting for it?

it's a minor annoyance, but it'll save us a lot of coding and confusion.

thanks!

Jason, (i wish i knew what 4-tier env meant?)
In your fex
-DEFAULT &MYPARM = 'FOC_NONE';
or whatever the default value you want is.
Then, from MRE, right click on the fexname, click properties, and then uncheck the prompt for paramters box. And the fex will execute taking the default values, or if you're running from a launch page, it will take whatever parmvalues are passed from the launch page.

I too am curious as to what "Four tier" means.
