Access 2000 Chart/Graph

2
I have an Access 2000 query that asks the user for the start date & end date for a report or chart. In the Access report, I can display the start & end dates entered in the query in the header of the report.

Problem: When I create a chart/graph using the same query, I am unable to display the start & end dates in the chart per the date prompts in the query.

Any ideas on how I can display the date range in the chart/graph?

Thanks much.

Store the actual Prompt in a Calculated Field, then set the Control Source of a Text Box equal to this Field. Suppose you have a Parameter Prompt on a [LastName] Field in an Employees Table as such:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. [Enter Last Name:]
Store the actual Return Value in a Calculated Field, [Last], in the Query, and reference this Field:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Last: [Enter Last Name:]

Thanks for the tip. I tried your ideas in my Access 2000 chart but always get an error message : #name?. I do have the text boxes pointing to the correct query field (Date). TGG
