Hi All, I have a report,using Report Builder 3.0, that takes in 2 parameters. A Start Date and a Time. Is it possible to add a section of text to the top of the screen,beside where the parameters ar entered, before the report is run, to explain what the report does and to specify the date and time format the code is expecting? Regards, Graeme.

Hello , This depends no of things 1. Depend upon your System date time setting I will Suggest you to handle in your SQL convert the date and time in any specfic format sent through parameter. blog:My Blog/ Hope this will help you !!! Sanjeewan

Hi Graeme, Before we run the report, the report items are invisible. If you add a text-box to explain what the report does and to specify the date and time format, this text-box is displayed in report pane, not in parameter pane, its visible only after you click the View report button. A workaround for this issue is type the text into the prompt of the parameter. Hope this helps. Regards, Charlie LiaoCharlie Liao TechNet Community Support
