If I have defined a query parameter that has a translated value, i.e. the user is prompted with a list of “readable” values and these are converted into the actual value before being used in the SQL query.
Now I want to display the used query parameters in the report header, but I can only figure out how to get the actual, used value (the “translated one”) and not the readable one.
Any ideas?
You won’t be able to get the ‘readable’ values from the parameter field, unfortunately.
If the values (keys and text) are from a table, you could create a subreport, linked to the parameter field, that returns the text values and serializes them. Place the subreport in its own section to allow for expansion; you may also need to experiment w/ section underlays.
If the values are static, you can create a formula field w/ a CASE statement to convert the key to a friendly value.
