    you can try creating a Public function for the Parameter Criteria of your query.

    let say your table has a FirstName field and you want to filter it:

     

    global varParam As Variant

    public function getQueryParam()

    gstrParam = ""

    gstrParam = Inputbox("Input the name of person", , varParam)

    End If

    getQueryParam = varParam

    end function

     

    your Global/Public variable is varParam.
