Question

I have a report in which a user is asked to enter a number. (parameter @number1 int).

How do I validate what the user entered?

eg. the number should be >0 and <99.

Is there some vaildation I could use? Or is there something to be done with expressions in ‘available values’?

Thanks for thinking with me!

There’s no validation available directly. The most common way to do this is to use a stored procedure to validate the input. You can also use a text box with conditional visibility to display a message to the user that the value is incorrect and put conditional visibility using the same logic on other report items to hide them when the user’s input is incorrect.
