Multivalue Integer problem

08-18-2010, 6:49 PM
Greetings,

I'm having trouble with using an integer report parameter in multivalue mode. It seems to work at design time, but it blows up when I try to preview the report and select the values for the parameter.

I've attached a very simplified example. I've created a multivalue integer parameter, given it 3 available values (1, 2, and 3). Preview the report, and click the checkbox next to one of the values. Exception!

This is a real problem for us, because one of our parameter scenarios that we absolutely must support is to select multiple integer values. Help please!

Hello,
In the report you have sent the parameter has the default value is set to the empty string which is not the valid value for integer.
In order to get report worked, please remove the default value, we have a video guideline for that:

Great, thanks! That works.

However, that leads me to point out another bug. I didn't create that default value. It looks like all new parameters are created with an empty string default value. That is an invalid value for integer parameters (boolean, float, and DateTime also). I can certainly delete that default value easily enough, but I think it's a problem that it is created in the first place.

Hello,
I've entered case 148843 to address the problem with the default parameter value. Once the build containing the fix is released you will be notified about that.
