Hello to all..
I am trying to select multiple values from a parameter form based on a select statement.
I created the parameter and write the select statement under list-of-value property
However what I want is to let users choose multiple values from the select statement not only one
value.

As far as I can tell, you can't do that (or, at least I don't know how to do it).

However, here's a possible workaround: create a form (using Forms Builder). Its source should be a table you used in a report parameter (or, if this statement selects values from different tables, make data block's source a view or a FROM clause query.

Besides a value, create a checkbox for each of them: if it is checked, you'd use that value in a report. Once you're done, push a button (or do something similar) which will insert checked values into a table (you'd have to create it too).

The rest is easy - report would just look into that table and use these values in its WHERE clause.
