A different Date parameter question

[Frustrated in AL]

With much help from this discussion group, I have a query based on a table
that I will continue to add to. I need to be able to query by specific
dates. The dates do not show up anywhere else in the query and I am not sure
how to set up the parameters for the start and end dates. Below is the SQL
and the Field that I need to pull the dates from is [Date Worked on]. Thank
you in advance for your assistance.

SELECT [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked].Responsibility, Count(*) AS [Number
of Appeals], Count(*)/(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM [Resolved by Hospice Date
Worked]) AS [% of All Appeals], Sum([Resolved by Hospice Date Worked].[Sales
Amount]) AS [Cost of Appeals], Sum([Sales Amount])/(SELECT SUM ([Sales
Amount]) From [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked]) AS [% of Cost of All Appeals]
FROM [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked]
GROUP BY [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked].Responsibility;

Amount]) From [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked]) AS [% of Cost of All Appeals]
FROM [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked]
GROUP BY [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked].Responsibility;

I am going to use a table aloas because your long table name
adds so much clutter that the query is difficult to read and
edit:

SELECT T.Responsibility, Count(*) AS [Number of Appeals],
Count(*)/(SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked]
) AS [% of All Appeals],
Sum(T.[Sales Amount]) AS [Cost of Appeals],
Sum([Sales Amount])/(SELECT SUM ([Sales Amount])
FROM [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked]
) AS [% of Cost of All Appeals]
FROM [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked] As T
WHERE [Date Worked on] Between [Start Date] Ans [End Date]
GROUP BY T.Responsibility

That will prompt you for the start and end date parameters,
which is only a quick and dirty example. You should
probably use a form with text boxes for those values. The
parameters would then look like:
Forms!theform.txtStartDate

You never did say if [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked] is a
table or a query. I can imagine situations where you want
to apply the date criteria to the subqueries as well as the
main query. If you do, then create a query (if it isn't
already one) and put the WHERE clause in that query instead
of the one you posted.

PARAMETERS [Enter Start Date]] DateTime, [Enter End Date] DateTime;
SELECT [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked].Responsibility,
Count(*) AS [Number of Appeals],
Count(*)/
(SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked]) AS [% of All Appeals],
Sum([Resolved by Hospice Date Worked].[Sales Amount]
WHERE [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked].[Date Worked on]
Between [Enter Start Date] And [Enter End Date])
AS [Cost of Appeals],
Sum([Sales Amount])/
(SELECT SUM ([Sales Amount])
FROM [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked]
WHERE [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked].[Date Worked on]
Between [Enter Start Date] And [Enter End Date])
AS [% of Cost of All Appeals]
FROM [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked]
WHERE [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked].[Date Worked on]
Between [Enter Start Date] And [Enter End Date]
GROUP BY [Resolved by Hospice Date Worked].Responsibility;

Note that I didn't test the above SQL and there could be a lot of problems.
1. The last WHERE clause may need to be a HAVING.
2. I assumed that you needed the same date ranges in the subqueries.
3. I assumed that [Date Worked on] is an actual Date/Time field.
4. I assumed that [Date Worked on] only stores the date and not a time. If
it also stores the time, my sql statement will cut off records at midnight on
what you entered on [Enter End Date].
5. I assumed that the parameters will carry over to the subqueires. If the
boss wasn't looking over my shoulder, I'd test that.

Lots of assumptions on my part.

This did the trick with very little tweaking. Thank you so much for your
assistance.
