Hi Sudeep,
Could you please be elaborate on your query.
Do you need to pass different pages to an activity?
If this is your query, you can use the parameter type as page or you can use prompt pages to achieve this.
Thanks.

I see that one of the parameter types on activities is "page name". When you're looking at the parameter tab of your activity, click "actions - > get help" and then click the "parameters" link on the help page for more info. /Eric

Hi,
Sorry couldn't reply. My requirement was to pass pagename as a parameter in an activity from implementation layer to framework layer.
The second part is all fine. The question is how to pass the pagename. In Pega 6, in pages and classes tab, there used to be a 'mode', if we selected that as prompt, we can pass the prompt page.
As Eric mentioned, I also went across that PageName parameter. How can we actually use that to pass pagename?
Accepted Solution
Let's say you have a page Original. If you're using the Page name parameter you can write a string on it with the name of the Page. So after adding the PageNameParameter parameter to the parameters tab and adding PageNameParameter to the Pages & Classes tab you could do a property-set: Param.PageNameParameter = "Original"
After this step you can use PageNameParameter (without Param) as a page, e.g. PageNameParameter.pyLabel points to Original.pyLabel.
