Query Help Needed

Lori

Okay, I have a query that joins three tables. This query looks at several
fields and adds them, simple enough but whenever I view the query it asks for
the parameters for each of the fields where I've imput an expression. The end
result is always right but how do I stop it from popping up with the
parameter request for each field?

Below is the SQL view of this query. I hope someone can give me a simple
answer to stop this.

Thanks:

SELECT [PFC Table].PFCID, [PFC Table].[Project #], [PFC Table].[Cost Code],
[PFC Table].Trade, [Subcontract Status1].[ScopeChange?], IIf(([Subcontract
Status Details]![Change Value]<>0),(0),([Original Budget])) AS Original,
IIf(([ScopeChange?]=-1),([Subcontract Status Details]![Change Value]),(0)) AS
[Approved Revisions], ([Original]+[Approved Revisions]) AS [Revised Budget],
[Subcontract Status Details].Value, IIf(([Subcontract Status Details]![Change

You did not say which parameters it ask for.

every field where I have written an expression asks for the parameters
everytime I try to view the query. Unless it's a field directly from the
table it will prompt me for the parameters, i.e. original, revised budget,
etc. These are the only ones that don't:
[PFC Table].PFCID, [PFC Table].[Project #], [PFC Table].[Cost Code],
[PFC Table].Trade, [Subcontract Status1].[ScopeChange?],

Do not use a calculated field name in the same query that does the
calculation. You have to use the calculation instead.

Or use the output in a second query.
