Oracle reports with queries

[Quoted] [Quoted] I wanted to know what is the method for generating reports in Oracle, when you want to provide some values for certain fields, based on which [Quoted] the report is generated. For example, I may want the user to specify a [Quoted] range of dates, such as >7/12/00 and <12/12/00 or something, so as to generate a report giving the information for all records with dates lying in between those two dates...similarly, there could be some other [Quoted] fields for which also values could be specified as a range or a specific value.

[Quoted] Can this be done by adding user parameter to the parameter form in Oracle reports? Otherwise, is there any way to connect an Oracle form to reports, which would allow the user to specify these criteria in the [Quoted] Oracle form, and then based on the criteria a report would be generated? [Quoted]  If that is possible, I suppose, it would also be possible to provide a [Quoted] drop down list if necessary, from which the values for the fields/criteria could be selected. I don't suppose such a thing could be done by just adding user parameter to the parameter form...

I would appreciate your response to this.

Thanks.
