How to fill a parameter with data values at run time ?????

I want to prompt user with two parameters, the first parameter(Region) is of the type string and is displayed as a list of values (loaded from SAS data set ) containing regions. the second parameter(City) also of type string . the issue is that when I select a region from the list I want the city list to load only those cities belong to the selected region.

In EGuide 4.1, it is under Tools --> Parameter (macro variable) manager, there is an equivalent setting in 3.x somewhere.

The issue is not How to create a parameter
It is about how to fill the parameter's data list with values depending on another parameter value

The feature that you're looking for, often called "cascading prompts", is not available in EG 4.1.
