One More Query...

In the first lesson on Queries we used the Query Criteria to find all of the movies that matched the Year we entered. In order to change the search, we had to return to the Design View and edit the Criteria under the Year from say 2012 to 2011.

 

This Parameter Query will be more flexible.
