I'm filtering a big table (about 10^5 observations, in order of magnitude) to allow its content visualization in an html report. I noticed a text input control can't support that because a general input control in sas preload the entire observations variable. Is there a way to disable this kind of preloading?  
Thanks

You could use a parameter to filter the text input control based on characters entered by the user. So, for example, say that your text input shows Schools. Create a parameter based on Schools, and then assign School to the Category role and School Parameter to the Parameter role. By default, the text input should filter using a Starts With.
