i have 4 countries in my database as USA, UK, INDIA, CHANA.
In value prompt's prompt control list, i want
WESTERN_COUNTRIES, ASIAN_COUNTRIES instead of those country
names.
When i click on WESTERN_COUNTRIES, it should retrieve USA,
UK records and when i click on ASIAN_COUNTRIES, it should
retrieve INDIA, CHINA records.
How is it possible?

Answer Posted / gajendra kumar

Just add static choices to value parameter as WESTERN_COUNTRIES, ASIAN_COUNTRIES. In report query add the filter (?parameter? = 'WESTERN_COUNTRIES' and [Dataitem] in ('USA', 'UK'))
or
(?parameter? = 'ASIAN_COUNTRIES' and [Dataitem] in ('INDIA', 'CHINA'))
