using the iif function, if for example we need "if the currency to be GBP" then something to happen etc,..
we should refer to a field of currencies in one table and say it is equal to GBP and then continuing with the function , right?
however, when i do so then each time i run the query i have a pop-up window requesting for parameter, and runs the query when i put "GBP" as parameter.
Is any way in which I can make the fuction to run always and not requestinf parameter..

Thank you a lot.

Dear Marina

Thank you for attending the Access courses. I hope you enjoyed them.

In a Query it asks for a parameter if you have put in a [ ] (Square Brackets) in your criteria box in the query. If you remove them then it should not give you any parameter dialog box and the problem should be resolved.

If it doesn’t then please click the reply button and copy and paste the criteria that you are inputting in the query design view and I should be able to examine if there is an error in the criteria.

If this has answered your query then I would request you to please mark the question as resolved!! If not and you have a specific question related to this then please post it as a new question and we should be able to provide you the solution for it!!


Kindest Regards
