Bug 177439 Need an easy way to determine default value for a dynamic parameter
Currently, I have to bring up the data set editor, preview the results in the data set and make a mental note of the value to use for a report parameter that depends on a data set. It would be nice to have a drop down on the default value field, such as <Select value> which when selected queries the data set and presents me with a list to select from.

if ( !isStatic( ) && !StringUtil.isBlank( listLimit.getText( ) ) )
			{
				try
				{
					inputParameter.setListlimit( Integer.parseInt( listLimit.getText( ) ) );
				}
				catch ( NumberFormatException ex )
				{
					ExceptionHandler.openErrorMessageBox( ERROR_TITLE_INVALID_LIST_LIMIT,
							MessageFormat.format( ERROR_MSG_INVALID_LIST_LIMIT,
									new Object[]{
										Integer.toString( Integer.MAX_VALUE )
									} ) );
				}
			}
			else
			{
				inputParameter.setProperty( ScalarParameterHandle.LIST_LIMIT_PROP,
						null );
			}
		}
		catch ( Exception e )
		{
			ExceptionHandler.handle( e );
			return;
		}
		setResult( inputParameter );
		super.okPressed( );
	}
