--- Comment #5 from Dreamquartz <basd at shaw.ca> ---
The problem is not so much the Parameter name therefore, but having the ability
to use the Wizard to create a Report from a Query.
The actual DataBase is used where Queries are used in conjunction with Reports.
It is therefore not logical that the User is allowed to create a Query, where
LIKE '%'|| :DocumentNumber || '%' can be used, and this Query can be presented
to the Report Wizard where Report Builder does not allow it.
It is a a direct functionality link available to the User to use a Query and to
create a Report from it.
>From a User point of view it does not make sense to use different names for
exactly the same thing. The Report uses the Query to run.
The Report is just a way to present result-set of the Query.
The Query does not have a Spreadsheet format as output.
The csv-format is used to be able import data into other external, non
controllable databases, owned and operated by external Agencies.
