Default parameter value

davidch

Is it possible to default a parameter to the current date?

Also, is there a way to put a button on a report to bring up the parameter page?

Thanks

Here is the code I used in the beforeOpen() script if anyone is interested.
If the date passed to the report is null, it sets the parameter dynamically.

if (params["RPT_REPORT_DATE"].value == null)
{
var cal = java.util.Calendar.getInstance();

//If less than 12:20 get data from two days ago
//If greater than 12:20 get data from yesterday
if( parseInt(cal.get(java.util.Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY)) > 12)
{
if( parseInt(cal.get(java.util.Calendar.MINUTE)) > 20)
{
cal.add(java.util.Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, -1);
}
else
{
cal.add(java.util.Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, -2);
}
}
else
{
cal.add(java.util.Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, -2);
}

params["RPT_REPORT_DATE"].value = (cal.get(java.util.Calendar.MONTH) + 1 ) + "/" + cal.get(java.util.Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH) + "/" + cal.get(java.util.Calendar.YEAR);
}
