When you define a dynamic prompt, you can specify a value for Maximum number of values to display in the New Prompt dialog box. For example, you might specify this value when creating a prompt in SAS^® Information Map Studio.

However, for performance reasons, SAS web applications (such as SAS^® Web Report Studio, SAS^® Information Delivery Portal, and the SAS^® Stored Process Web Application) do not enforce this property. Instead, those applications always show a maximum of 100 values. If there are more than 100 values, a More values link appears.

Note: For SAS Web Report Studio, you can add a property that enables you to increase the number of values that are displayed before the More values link appears. To use this property, you must be using 4.2_M2 or 4.3 with the latest hot fix applied, or 4.31 or later without a hot fix. This property applies only to SAS Web Report Studio.

1. In SAS Management Console, on the Plug-ins tab, select Application Management ► Configuration Manager ► Web Report Studio 4.x.
2. Right-click and select Properties to open the Web Report Studio 4.x Properties dialog box.
3. Click the Advanced tab.
4. Click Add to open the Define New Property dialog box.

   CAUTION: Enter the lowest value that will achieve your goal because retrieving the list of values can adversely affect performance if the list of values is very large.

   • For the Property Name, enter .vmwide.com.sas.prompts.pagesize
   • For the Property Value, enter the number of prompt values that you want to display.
5. Click OK twice to exit both dialog boxes and save the changes.
6. Restart your web application server to enforce the new settings.

Note: SAS desktop clients such as SAS^® Add-in for Microsoft Office and SAS^® Enterprise Guide^® always show all values for the dynamic prompt, regardless of the setting for the Maximum number of values to display option. JMP^® Pro 11 and later releases correctly use the Maximum number of values to display option when the dynamic prompt is populated for the end user. SAS Information Map Studio also honors the option when it renders the dynamic prompt.
