Hi fmalaj, staticText elements are not meant to be changed programmatically. Have you tried changing the element to a textField?

To ktalarico - Thank you for your response to this issue. Can you please elaborate on how this would prevent mandatory input control from working? I believe what you are saying is that is a user could get away with a running a report without inputting a mandatory parameter themselves, because technically the code has already given a value to the parameter. Please let me know if this is what you mean. Thanks! Other than that this solution appears to work well, with the parameter being input by the user overwriting the empty string that was initialized. Something to consider in the design would be an indicator to the user that the field is mandatory.
