[AccessD] Prompt for input on report with chart

I have a report that only has a bar graph chart on it.
What I am trying to do is have the user prompted for a date range that will
be used to qualify what records are returned.
I thought that if I change the two dates in the qReportData (see below) to
something like [Enter Start Date] and [Enter End Date] that this would give
me what I was looking for but instead I get an error message that reads:
"The Microsoft Jet database engine does not recognize '[Enter Start Date]'
as a valid field name or expression"

Any ideas on how I can achieve this?

Here are the 2 queries that I am using:

Name: qUsedForChartData
SELECT DMRCCRLog.DateOpened, DMRCCRLog.Department,
Discrepencies.Disposition, DMRCCRLog.DocumentNum
FROM DMRCCRLog INNER JOIN Discrepencies ON (DMRCCRLog.DocumentType =
Discrepencies.DocumentType) AND (DMRCCRLog.DocumentNum =
Discrepencies.DocumentNum)
WHERE (((DMRCCRLog.DocumentType)="DMR"));

Name: qReportData
SELECT qUsedForChartData.Department, qUsedForChartData.Disposition, Count(*)
AS NumOfDMRs
FROM qUsedForChartData
WHERE [DateOpened] BETWEEN #5/1/2005# AND #5/7/2005#
GROUP BY qUsedForChartData.Department, qUsedForChartData.Disposition
ORDER BY qUsedForChartData.Department, qUsedForChartData.Disposition;

The chart uses the following for the row source:
TRANSFORM Sum([NumOfDMRs]) AS [SumOfNumOfDMRs] SELECT [Department] FROM
[qReportData]   GROUP BY [Department] PIVOT [Disposition];

Thanks!
