I am currently using Report Studio in Cognos 8. I am new to Cognos and haven't had any luck searching for the steps to create a display option prompt on my report that allows the users to toggle from report layout 1(layout page 1) to report layout 2(layout page 2).

I did use a value prompt but was only able to create an object display option within the first report layout.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt
 
Please disregard. I was able to figure it out. I first created the parameter then a string variable(# varies on how many pages you have in your report). I then created a conditional layout(File menu). In the variable drop down select the variable you created. If you cannot get the second page(layout) to generate with your parameter then you many need to copy your page2 layout into the "Page Explorer" page1 created when when you created your conditional layout.

You should have a Yes and No Report pages in your "Page Explorer" menu.

I hope this helps anyone that has the same issue. I am new to this so i appologize in advance with my format and description details above.
