Answer / asha

Can you be more specific abut this. What i understand from
the question, you have a prompt page with a text box prompt
and the user types the value. When the user types the
product name 'ex: laptop' and clicks 'finish' the report
page has to display all the records relevent to laptop.
When the user types 'All' in the text box prompt and
clicks 'Finish' the report has to display all the products.

Has someone tried this? Can someone help?
