    Posted: 22 Dec 2011 at 6:18pm
Hello,
I have a report that has values for current year,current year-1,current year+1.My report is to generate a prompt so that user can select current year or current year-1 or current year+1 or all .So when the user selects current year it should display only that particular way.In the similar way if he selects all it should display all columns.Any one please suggest me how to proceed?

Thanks in Advance.

using the paramater screen...
I would have 3 parameters, which would basically be just check boxes for last year, current year, next year.
 
The user selects the boxes that they want and then you can dynamically suppress the values on the report that you don't want to see.
 
If you want the report to always format the same...as opposed to empty columns, you could programmatically shift the location of the columns ( would start will all the columns in the 'first' column location, and then move them to the right however much is needed depending on how many checkboxes are selected).
