Error message: Syntax error(missing operator)in query expression

[Guest]

I have 2 forms a product change form and an ECN form, the ECN form is opened
by a comand button on the product change form using the code below. What I
am trying to do is this: bring the Product change number from that form into
the ECN form when the ECN form is opened and then also bring in the
Description, reason, and Summary into the same ECN form when opened. These
are all listed on the product change form. If I only try to to the
ProductChangeNo it will work fine, but when I try to do the others I get the
message listed below the code.

Code being used:

Private Sub OpnECNFormCMD_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_OpnECNFormCMD_Click

Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String

stDocName = "FRM_ECN_Issued"
stLinkCriteria = "[ChangeDoc]=" & Me![ProductChangeNo]
stLinkCriteria = stLinkCriteria & "[Description]=" & Me![DescribeRequest]
stLinkCriteria = stLinkCriteria & "[Reason]=" & Me![ReasonforRequest]
stLinkCriteria = stLinkCriteria & "[Summary]=" & Me![SummaryofChange]
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria


Exit_OpnECNFormCMD_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_OpnECNFormCMD_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_OpnECNFormCMD_Click

End Sub

Error Message receiving:

Syntax error (missing operator) in query expressing
'[ChangeDoc]"=1[Description]=Add (2) 05040006 and (2) 05020017 to kit
11190011[Reason]=To provide enough screws for all inslationss of overhead
hose retrofits[Summary]=Revised BOM'

The information being shown for each of the fields is correct but I can't
tell what operator is missing or where. I'm somewhat new to writing code to
do things but I'm trying, please let me know what I've missed.

Syntax error (missing operator) in query expressing

You've given it a "run-on sentence." ;-)

Spaces are needed between the criteria and string values need to be
delineated, too. When there are more than one criteria to be assigned, the
Keyword AND must be placed between each separate criteria, so that all of
these conditions must apply. Try (watch out for word wrap):

stDocName = "FRM_ECN_Issued"
stLinkCriteria = "[ChangeDoc]=" & Me![ProductChangeNo] & _
" AND " & _
stLinkCriteria = stLinkCriteria & "[Description]='" & _
Me![DescribeRequest] & "' AND " & _
stLinkCriteria = stLinkCriteria & "[Reason]='" & _
Me![ReasonforRequest] & "' AND " & _
stLinkCriteria = stLinkCriteria & "[Summary]='" & _
Me![SummaryofChange] & "'"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria

When I put in that code I get a completely blank form and the error message
type mismatch and all datatypes are the same, i.e. productcode is autonumber,
and the rest are memo fields.
