Dynamic text box value from database

HI

I have a date data type report parameter of display type as text box.Also,i have a table in database which contains one date column(say modifiedDate).I want to fetch the min(modifiedDate) from the table and put in the text box dynamically.but i see only static radio button enabled for text box display type(when i edit the report parameter in eclipse).Can the dynamic text box value be fetched from the database using scripting?
My requirement is to use the display type as text box only,i know if it was combo/list box it could have been possible to fetch the dynamic values directly from the database.Can someone help please.

Thanks in advance

Hi vinod,

Can you explain a little more? I'm not sure if I'm understanding correctly.

Hi
Thanks for the reply.
We have the option of selecting either the static or dynamic values for list box and combo box display types in the Report Parameter Dialog.Like for example we have the data type as String and display type as Text box in the sample design's report parameters dialog(test.rptdesign) in the WebViewerExample application.As far i can see you can manually enter the value in the default value list box of the dialog.I want a dynamic value fetched from a database as the Default value for the same design file.Hope this is clear

Thanks
