Question

I am having a problem with one of my parameter fields. I have YES to show all the results with yes on, and NO for all of those with no on, on other parameter fields if i leave the field as “…” it will show both yes and no. I don’t seem to be able to select “…” as a default value. When i click “…” in the parameter field no results are shown.

please see the below screenshots relevant to this column:

If you require any more information, please ask.

thank you,

‘…’ isn’t a value that can be set. It is what is displayed when a value hasn’t been chosen.

You can either:

• make it an optional parameter; see Conditionally prompting for optional parameters
• make it a multi-select parameter and look for the presence of one or the other or both

In both cases, it would be easier for you if you used a Boolean parameter rather than a String.
