	HI I HAVE THE FOLLOWING FORMULA {dt_Employee_Payroll_Detail.Client_ID} = ToNumber("10"+{?Client ID}) AM TRYING TO ADD "10" TO THE VALUE ENTERED AS THE PARAMETER AND KEEP GETTING ERROR MESSAGE Array must be subscripted. This only errors when the multiple value is "true"in the parameter. When "false" process works fine

	if there are multiple allowed, then CR treats the parameter as an array, and so the statement to add "10" to the array makes no sense. you would need to iterate through the array and add the 10 for each element if you want to both add the 10 and have multiple values.

	Hi Try this : Local StringVar str := ""; Local NumberVar i; For i := 1 To count ({?name}) Do ( str:=str+"10"&{?name}; i=i+1; ); str Note : you may have to modify this formula according to your data types.
	Thanks, Sastry

	I would think that what you really want is: local numbervar x; for x := 1 to ubound({?parameter}) step 1 do( {?parameter}[x] := "10" + {?parameter}; ) I am using x, only because bracket i bracket makes italics. In addition, SATELE01, wanted how to alter the parameter, though making a string would be a helpful check. hopefully, I got all the syntax correct
