Answer / balanandam
Abhay ur concept is write, but there is other way to implement this ....
using static choice property in the properties pan u can put the values like Group1, Group2....
and modify the default sql as
if query.country in (?parameter?='Group1')then (Country in ('','','')) else
else if.....then...
else if....then...
else query.country='parameter';
i think this will clear more
save report and run.
