Enter Parameter Value....Help

[DavidS]

I have a data base that I am reusing for a slightly different customer. I
copied alot of my original product into the new database. I had to rename
some fields in some tables and now get enter parameter value when I work on
forms. I have already set Name and Track Autocorrect to active...to no avail

Sounds like one or more of your forms has a recordsource (query/table) that
is missing one or more fields. Look for "Exp1" in the underlying query
design grid and correct any missing names.

The Access autocorrect feature works, but must be turned on before objects
are created. Try "Find & Replace"

to change existing object names.

David, my experience is that Name AutoCorrect does not work reliably, does
not work in all contexts, works incorrectly (confusing the names of fields,
controls, aliases, and captions), can crash Access (shut down by Windows),
and has a high likelihood of corrupting your database.

I don't even bother keeping this article up to date any more:
Failures caused by Name Auto-Correct
at:

as there are just too many associated bugs.

Disable Name AutoCorrupt, compact the database, and then rename the cases
where Access asks for parameters so it is using the correct field names.

The Access autocorrect feature works,

That's debatable since it causes many problems, see this:

I agree, do not use that feature myself and do not recommend it. I just
wanted to point out that you can't switch it on after the fact and expect it
to track and change "old" objects.
