 Setting Parameters for an SQL Statement 

Use

You can set parameters for SQL statements. When you execute an SQL statement for which parameters exist, the system displays a dialog box where you have to enter a value for the parameter.

Procedure

  1. When you create the SQL statement, insert square brackets in all the places where you want the user to enter variables.
  2. If you want to formulate a prompt for the dialog box, enter this prompt within the square brackets.
  3. By setting parameters you can also replace entire sections of an SQL statement.
