Set user-selected criteria to default to today's date

rbuser

Hi,

When an end-user runs a report and the criteria selection box displays, is
there a way to make it default to today's date as the selected criteria?

Regards

One solution is to use the OnBeforeAutoSearchDialog create event to
initialize the AutoSearchFields[].SearchExpression values. You could also
use the Report.Template.OnLoadEnd event to do this.

Another approach would be to create a custom autosearch dialog that displays
the default value. See RBuilder\Demos\AutoSearch\Custom AutoSearchDialog.

Hi Nard,

Your first solution, I can do this in RAP? RB6.03

Yes, the Report.OnBeforeAutoSearchDialogCreate event is available to RAP.
