[Solved] Information Text in Query

Post by Spur52 »

I have a SQL query that wants the user to enter a word that is used in the Recipe Field. How can I add text to explain what is wanted in the query box?

It isn't clear what you mean by "query box".

If you are referring to a Text Box on a Form then open the Text box control Properties dialog and on the General tab scroll and put your description in “Help text … “
If you mean a Parameter dialog, then you are limited to the text string you use to define the parameter.
