Hi,

I want to calculate some values for last five year.The current year i select from HTML ui and then i have to pass it to fex variable.
I want to pass it to a -SET variable called CURYEAR and based on that CURYEAR i will calculate PREVYEAR1,PREVYEAR2,PREVYEAR3,PREVYEAR4.

How can i assign the selection from HTML to -SET variable.?
What is a good approach for this requirement.

In the html composer tool on the parameters tab you can assign the html object directly to parameter (variable) and then simply do your calculations based on that parameter (variable).


Thank you for using Focal Point!

Hi Chuck,

I am aware of linking the fex parameter with html object.
But what i need is assigning an html object as below.
-SET Var1 = html_object-->i want the html object to assign directly here.
Coz i need to calculate some variables based on that selection.
Please let me know if i am not clear.

The paramenter in the html can be standalone and refereneced by the fex to do the calculations you want. No need to do a -SET Var1 = html_object because it is already set and passed in by the html form.
