SQL.

Lot more difference....

Answer / kiran

Prompts: Prompts takes the input parameters/values from the
users(from the list of values) and run the report/query
based on the user selection.
Cascading Prompts: are also prompts, but its a link of
chain based on user section values..
Eg: first prompt asks the user to select the Country from
the list of countries, then it filters at the backend and
asks the user to select the state to select( these are
states only belong to that above country)...then goes to
cities which only belong to that above state...

I am working on Business Objects-reporting side. Database is Teradata. I have two questions here: 1. We will be working only on Infoview on QA environment. Do I need to add ODBC entries for the QA database server on my machine to be able to create/refresh Infoview reports? I will not be using Desk_I or Web_I rich client. 2. Once reports are developed,Admin team would migrate the reports to Production and make these available to business users. The reports are Refresh on Open. Would the business users need to have the ODBC entries of Production database server in their machines to be able to refresh these reports?
