I have a saved query from which I build my weekly customer reports. It
queries a "Region" column which has predefined values: North, South etc.
With this same query I would like to quier one more column called "Round"
which has NON-predefined values. So when I double click on the query a
window should popup asking me what value would I like to enter for the
"Round" column. How do I do that?

Go to the field "Round" in the query-view
Put something like [Give me the value for the Round] in he criterion row of the query

hey,

all you need to do for that is go to the design view for the query and
under the criteria for the Round field type in [Round?] and it will prompt
for you to enter the round and then only show results where the round field
equals the round value you entered.

This is magic. Now how do I capture that in a report header? Should look
something like: North Area, Round [round number]?

Create a textbox in the report header
Use the SAME criterion as used in the query as the controlsource like =[Give me the value for the Round]

Or (to get North Area, Round [round number] as you ask)
="North Area, Round [" & [Give me the value for the Round] & "]"
