Default paramater Queries

We are trying to create a generic paramater query that will work for many
applications. Is there any way to set it up so that certain criteria are not
necessary to the query. For instance we have a Type field, a status field,
and a date completed field. If the status is in progess we will not have a
date completed to enter.

I don't usually add any dynamic criteria to queries. Queries are usually the
record source of forms or reports. Consider using code to build a where
clause for the DoCmd.OpenForm method or OpenReport method.

I also suggest you don't use parameter prompts.

If you have other requirements, please let us know.
