I am looking for a way to prompt a user to make a selection on mulitple parameters, however, I would like for the subsequent parameters to provide selections based on their previous selection.

For example, I want to show

SELECT YEAR
(and show all years)

SELECT EVENT
(and show only events in the year they select)

SELECT EVENT GROUPS
(and show only the event groups in the event and year they select)

Is there any way to do this?

Thank you. Andrea

It appears you're using a Dev Studio GUI tool to create your parameter screens and reports.

Take a look at the Dev Studio help: Developing Reporting Applications With Graphical Tools > Designing a User Interface for a Web Application With the HTML Layout Painter > Using Form Controls to Supply Parameter Values

And you want to chain the controls together.

Andrea,

I have had issues getting similar chaining to work. If you also have problems implementing, let me know and I will share my "workaround".
