[AccessD] Modifying a query

It is modifying it for purposes of opening the recordset. so the SQL looks
something like this:
PARAMETERS areaname Text ( 255 ); SELECT GLMAREA.COMPY, GLMAREA.REGION,
GLMAREA.AREA
FROM GLMAREA WHERE (((GLMAREA.AREA)=[areaname]));

in the code I sent earlier strparameter="areaname" and strCriteria would be
the criteria you can set via a textbox or whatever. In the query grid right
click and select parameter. You can then define the name and data type of
the parameter. on the criteria line type [areaname]. This will create the
sql listed above. You can then feed the parameter the criteria value from
code as desired. HTH

Thought about it?  I didn't even know about it!  That's the kind of 
thing I would have suspected existed.  But are you actually modifying 
and saving the query or just modifying it for purposes of opening the 
recordset?
