Dmitri-
[Quoted] I am aware of the before parameter form trigger, but I have not been able to make it work in this situation. Here is what I tried for this
[Quoted] function BeforePForm return boolean is today DATE; begin today := to_char(SYSDATE); return (TRUE); end;
[Quoted] This compiles, but I have no way of using this value (today) in the Initial Value field. Report triggers must return a boolean value, and they don't allow arguments.
[Quoted] Any further thoughts?
Thanks,
Brian
