| re: Queries Prompting for Input Twice
Hi,
It may not be a problem with spelling. It seems to happen if the
underlying table is changed in some way, possibly sorted
differently. I have not spent time researching the reason as it
happens very infrequently.
The solution that I found that works is to rename the parameter.
eg if it is say [Enter Customer Number] change to say [Enter Cust
Number]. This seems to work in our case for up to one or two years
and then something changes and it needs to be fixed again.
I hope this helps.
