How do I show the parameter info on a report header?

  • Follow


I generate a report that shows all my shipping info for a certain month or 
week.  I am using a parameter query that requires the user to input the 
beginning date and the ending date.  I'd like to see that inputed info on my 
header, i.e. "Shipping info for the week of: (this is where I type in my date 
info)".

Is there a control I use or what is the easiest way to show that info?  
Thanks for any help anyone out there can give me!!

Let's assume the query criteria is:
Between [Enter Start Date] and [Enter end Date]

Add an unbound text control to the Report Header.
set it's control source to:
="Shipping for the week of " & [Enter Start Date] & " to " & [Enter
End Date]

The text within the brackets must be identical to the bracketed
parameter text in the query.
