Hi,
I want to generate report based on the user entered values. I dont want any values from the database.
Eg. I am calculating Simple Interest. I = P * N * R.
P, N and R are user input values. How to send the I value to Report and show it???
I used only queries to generate reports.
Thanks, Ranjith

Create 4 user parameters: P, N, R and I; all of them should be of a NUMBER datatype.
Don't touch P, N and R. Open I's Property Inspector and write its Validation Trigger as:I := :P * :N * :R;
return (true);
Go to Paper Layout Editor and draw 4 fields - one per user parameter; run the report.
Parameter form will display all 4 parameters (so perhaps you'd want to remove "I" in the Parameter Form Editor.
That's all.
