    Enter Parameter Value

    I apologize, I have been away from my DB and learning access for a couple of months, so its possible I have already asked this in the past, but I could not find it when searching for a solution.




    Basic query with calculated field, trying to see the difference between total spend and budgeted amount. and when the query is run is asks for a parameter value.
    when I click "OK" with no parameter it runs as wanted, but how do I keep it from asking for a parameter?
    (as a side note, I did follow the ? and understand that the problem is likely that I have an expression: (Bdiff) but found no explanation of why that is the problem or how to overcome it)

    In column "Bdiff", have you tried changing the "Total" Row Setting to "Expression"
