IN operator with multiple values

G

Guest

How can I pass multiple values using the IN operator on a numeric field.
Example, the table is "Customer" and I want the user to be able to type in
"N" number of customer numbers to show only those customers. I tried using IN
([enter cust. number]) in the Criteria field but I can only type in one
customer number. If I type 3005, 3006 I get an error. Is this possible, or
am I stuck to one number at a time.

You can't put multiple items in an IN () list from a pop-up parameter
prompt.

Here is a URL that has an example Query database. See the Query example
"How to create a parameter query that accepts a list of values."
