Glenda- Depending on how you set up your queries you have a few options.=20 If your queries are querying other queries, use the same name for all = the input parameters. If QryOne has a parameter of [Enter Date] and = qryTwo has a parameter of [Enter Date] and the select statement is some = thing like SELECT qryOne.*, qryTwo.* FROM qryOne INNER JOIN..... you = will only be prompted once. Access will 'remember' the value. Also in code use an inputbox to input the date. But then you would have = to create your own SQL statement and execute it. Possibly like=20 =20 value =3D InputBox"Enter a Value" SQL =3D "SELECT * FROM tblOne WHERE Criteria =3D " & value db.Execute SQL SQL =3D "SELECT * FROM tblTwo WHERE Criteria =3D " & value db.Execute SQL -Anthony -----Original Message----- From: Glenda Wells [mailto:gwells@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, January 30, 2003 7:21 PM To: 'mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [mso] Date in Access Hi All.
