RE: STRQMQRY variables

[CWilt@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Cyndi,

Use &col# to cause the value of a column to be placed on the page heading.

This is from QM online help.

Means your query needs to be something like this:

select field1, field2, &datefrom, &dateTo
from myfile
where datefld between &datefrom and &dateto

Then in your form, hide the resulting date columns and use &3 and &4 to get
them onto the page header.

HTH,
Charles
