Populating second parameter with values chosen from the first param

SSAS and SSRS
1

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to populate a parameter's fields by a multi value selection.. it works when I select 1 value from param1 but once I select 2 or more values I receive an error "An expression of non-boolean type specified in a context is expected. near ',' "
I checked numerous forums but with no luck...

my parameters (values from a query)

param1

select distinct
CASE
WHEN CHARINDEX('LINE-1', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'line1'
WHEN CHARINDEX('LINE-2', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'line2'
WHEN CHARINDEX('LINE-3', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'line3'
WHEN CHARINDEX('LINE-4', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'line4'
WHEN CHARINDEX('LINE-5', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'line5'
WHEN CHARINDEX('LINE-6', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'line6'
END AS 'Production_Line'

FROM ct.tables

param2

select DISTINCT

CASE
WHEN @line = 'line1' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-1', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('MIXER', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Mixer'
WHEN @line = 'line1' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-1', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('LINKER', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Linker'

WHEN @line = 'line2' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-2', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('LINKER-1', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Linker 1'
WHEN @line = 'line2' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-2', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('LINKER-2', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Linker 2'

WHEN @line = 'line3' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-3', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('MIXER-2', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Mixer 2'
WHEN @line = 'line3' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-3', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('MIXER-3', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Mixer 3'

WHEN @line = 'line4' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-4', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('BLOCK-1', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Block 1'
WHEN @line = 'line4' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-4', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('MIXER-1', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Mixer 1'

WHEN @line = 'line5' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-5', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('BLOCK-1', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Block 1'
WHEN @line = 'line5' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-5', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('FORMER-1', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Former 1'

WHEN @line = 'line6' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-6', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('MICRO-1', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Micro 1'
WHEN @line = 'line6' AND CHARINDEX('LINE-6', CT.Dim) > 0 AND CHARINDEX('MICRO-2', CT.Dim) > 0 THEN 'Micro 2'

END AS 'Equipment_Type'
END AS 'Equipment_Type'

FROM ct.tables

unfortunately only way I can pull this data is with char index's there are no primary keys since all the data is in one column

Any advice id appreciate it!

Thanks,

figured it out

created 2 temporary tables and gave fake ID's to both !
