SAS VA 7,4 parameter with multiple values from a list control

HI all,

my question is quite simple:

in VA Designer (VA 7,4) is there a way to create a "new calculated data item" from a parameter with multiple values derived from the selection in a list control?

I've done it with a single value parameter from a drop-down list, but a parameter with multiple value seems a completely different data type incompatible with all existing function.

My goal is to transfer the values contained in the parameter to a stored process and I've seen that it could be done through an external link from a list table ( https://www.zencos.com/blog/sas-va-tip-building-a-link-to-download-source-data/).

Thanks in advance

Carlo

Please refer to the image.

SAS VA 7.4 give us the option for passing the multiple values in the parameter.

Thank you jmehul, but the point is not to create a parameter with multiple values.

The point is to use the values in the parameter and transfer them to a linked stored process: I don't know if this is possible or not.

Anyway, thank you.

I don't think it is possible, see the last sentence...:(
