Lot of discussions happened in this topic. Just do a search on changing parameter values during run time. You will get lot of information on this topic from this forum.

You can change the value of job parameters at runtime

Hi,

You can change the value of job parameters at run time. Thats the reason they are used for. Compile the job once and run it as many times as you can.
When you hit the run button, the parameter list pops up. Then change the value in that. This works !
Hope this explains your question.

You can change (set) the values of job parameters when requesting a job run.

Once the job has started you can not legally change the value of a job parameter. At least one hack has been posted here that allows it to be done; there's a strong chance that that hack will not work in the next major release.
