    Get value typed in for a Parameter query

    Hello



    I have a form that when runs, uses a parameter query and prompts the user for a value. Based on that value, it then displays the records that match the criteria.

    Is there any way I can capture the value typed into a variable to use elsewhere on the form?

    Thank you
    Terry

    You need to tackle this issue in reverse. First capture the variable on the form, then pass the variable to the query. There is a nice demo, including documentation posted in the sample databases section. Take a look at this to seeif it helps.
