Parameter Value Box

[JWT]

1. I have reports based upon parameter value in a query. What do I need to add to this that will keep open or reopen the parameter value box after I close the report?
2. How do I format the parameter value box to make the entered information (e.g. Begin & End Date, or Location) appear on the report?
Thank you JWT

Hi
I use a text box in a form and give its address in the query parameter, so dates entered in the form are used as parameters and in the report place unbound text boxes whose data source is set as the text boxes in the form from which the parameter qry draws the dates.
hope this sort out your problem

Thank you,
That has been one way I have added the information on the report (e.g. Like ([Location]&”*”)) and I enter location. Is there another way to achieve this?
This will help with question #2 and for question #1 have you ever set the Parameter Value Box “on close to reopen? I use this report on many locations and each time I close I have to reopen Parameter Value Box again. Looking for a time saver but have not found the way to set up or if it can be done.
