<p>I had a requirement to create a Multi-Select parameter for a Project Lead. I created the parameter and dynamically populated it with the Project Lead column.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I also had a requirement to add an option for the user to easily select all the names (too cumbersome to Ctrl+click every name apparently). I created a Default value for the parameter and set it to the string "All". I also created an array that is filled with all the value returns for the Project Lead. At the group level of the report, I added the following filter:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>row["triIntermediate__triContactRole__triPeople__triNameTX"].getNativeValue() </p>
<p> </p>
<p>IN</p>
<p> </p>
<p>if(BirtComp.equalTo(params["Project Lead"].value[0],"All")){</p>
<div>myArray;</div>
<div>}</div>
<div> </div>
<div>else{params["Project Lead"].value}</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I had some issues getting the filter to work initially but I had neglected to specify a specific entry in the parameter (since all multi select parameters return in array form). With that figured out, my report ran fine in Eclipse. When I uploaded it to Tririga to run, my custom default "All" option had disappeared from the prompt screen.</div>

<div>This is the prompt box when run in Eclipse</div>
