Report Date Range

G

Guest

I have a report based on a date parameters query that asks for the Between
[Enter Start Date] And [Enter End Date] criteria in the date field. That is
great.

Now when I run the report it prompts for date range and gives me appropriate
data.

How do I put a label or text box in the report that identifies the date
criteria the report was run on?

Put a TextBox on the report with a ControlSource of...

="Date Range: " & [Enter Start Date] & " to " & [Enter End Date]

Change the text portions as desired. What is between the square brackets
has to match exactly the text you used in the query parameter markers.

Another way is to add output fields in the query like this --
Start Date: [Enter Start Date] End Date: [Enter End Date]
Just make sure it is exactly as in criteria (i always copy and paste) so
there are not multiple prompts.
