I'm confused. You listed programming code in your post, but you say that you can't use code? So do you want to prompt the user for the parameters via a custom app? Not sure.... Anyway, you can use formulas if you just want to hard-code some values in the report and not get the parameter prompt. Another way to do this is to make the report a subreport of a blank main report and hard code the values in the main report and then link them to the subreport. This prevents the parameter prompt as well. Another idea is to change the look of the parameter box by changing it's CSS file (it's really just an HTML window). Look for the file "promptengine_default.css" in the \css\ subfolder of CR installation direction. Again, there are lots of options here depending upon what you really want to do.

I talk about using the subreport option on page 198 in my book. I talk about formatting the parameter dialog box using CSS in Tutorial 4-9.
