comboboxes input parameter

Is it possible to configure combo box with values depending on another
combobox selection in Reporting Parameters
e.g.
Input1: a combobox with country
Input2: should dynamically display states in the selected country, which
user can select.
appreciate any pointers . thxOn Apr 19, 12:06 pm, "nkg" <x...@.yahoo.com> wrote:

Sure. What you want to do is create a dataset to use for the second
report parameter (in the Data tab, select the <New Dataset...> option
from the drop-down list to the right of Dataset) and include the usual
query as well as the place holder parameter (i.e., select States from
StateTable where Country = @.Country). Then select the 'Edit Selected
Dataset' button [...] and on the Parameters tab enter in the Name of
the parameter (in this case, @.Country) [it is case sensitive by the
way] and select the Parameter that @.Country should be dependent on
(most likely, something like: Parameters!Country.Value). hope this
helps.
