My company is brand new to WebFocus so I apologize for this question being somewhat basic. I am trying to include a .htm file into a .fex report as a header. Part of this header has a drop down which will be used to set which database I will connect to in my report. The drop down is defined as a select like below:
< id=Select1 style="WIDTH: 152px" name=cboDB>
>
I would like to use that value in the report like so:
-ENGINE SQLORA SET DEFAULT_CONNECTION &cboDB
However, I am not picking up the value correctly in the report.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Kerry,

try putting this code at the top of your fex instead of your html code
-PROMPT &cboDB.(<DATA BASE 1,DB1>,<DATA BASE 2,DB2>,<DATA BASE 3,DB3>,<DATA BASE4,DB4>.Please select your database.
this will create the drop down for you.
If you don't like the way that works, you can always create the html using the html composer and then reference the fex in the html.
I hope this helps
