Parameter in Queries

[genevi]

In the criteria of a query I can use a parameter from a text box of a form.<br>If I put Like * in the text box, Acces will think it is a string. But I want Access to interpret this like the function Like *. Is it possible to do such thing?<br><br>Thanks<br>Genevi<br>&nbsp;
