Dashboard Prompt Title

Question

Hi,
I am displaying a report in a Dashboard. This report has three Prompts, "From Date", "To Date" and "Department".
Once I select the prompts, the reports displays correctly. However, I would like to Print on top of the page the actual values of for "From Date", "To Date" and "Department".
The format will be something like this:
Report Name:
Date From: 12/01/2008 To 12/01/2008
Department: AnyDepartment
How can I do this?
Thanks,

Ok,
Here are the two dashboard prompts:
Prompt 1: CHAR column,
formula: CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN "ACTIVITY"."STATUS" ELSE 'Test' END.
Operator: "is equal to / is in".
Control: Drop down list. "All choices" box is checked
Show: SQL Results. "SELECT DISTINCT CAST("ACTIVITY"."DATE SOLD" AS DATE) FROM SUBAREA
Default to: Report Defaults
Set Variable: Presentation Variable - FromDate
Created Prompt2 with the same procedure, except the PV name is ToDate.
In the Report, I display two columns, Product and Date Sold.
The Filter for the report looks like this:
"ACTIVITY"."DATE SOLD" >= '@{FromDate}'
AND "ACTIVITY"."DATE SOLD" <= '@{ToDate}' .
When I open the dashboard, I get the error:
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 17001] Oracle Error code: 1858, message: ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected at OCI call OCIStmtExecute: select T21021.PRODUCT as c1, T21021.DATE_SOLD as c2 from ACTIVITY T21021 where ( T21021.DATE_SOLD between '@{FromDate}' and '@{ToDate}' ) order by c1, c2.
