Hello,

I launch Discoverer in command line, with this line:
start I:\oracle\BIToolsHome_1\bin\dis51usr.exe /CONNECT $2/$3 /OPENDB "$1" /SHEET all


$1 meaning the query
$2 meaning the user
$3 meaning the password

I'd like to be able to add some arguments, that could be used in the query (in a the "where" section of the query for example). For example, if i had a query with a condition on the year, I'd like to be able to launch my query directly with the condition "year" fixed at 2008. The command line would be close to this :
start I:\oracle\BIToolsHome_1\bin\dis51usr.exe /CONNECT $2/$3 /OPENDB "$1" /SHEET all /PARAMS "2008"


Is it possible ?
Thanks for your help

From the documentation:

This command enables you to set a specified parameter to a specified value.

Modifiers:

If the end user does not specify a value for a parameter in a workbook then Discoverer uses a default value.
