Producing Too few parameters. Expected 2. Error up vote 4 down vote favorite I have a query called qryAlloc_Source that has two paramaters under one criteria: >=[forms]![frmReportingMain]![txtAllocStart] And <=[forms]![frmReportingMain]![txtAllocEnd]) A have a separate query that ultimately references qryAlloc_Source (there are a couple queries in between), and that query runs fine when I double click it in the UI, but if I try to open ms access openrecordset too few parameters expected 2 it in VBA, I get an error. My code is: Dim rst As Recordset Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("qryAlloc_Debits") I am getting run-time error 3061, Too few parameters. Expected 2. I've read that I may need to build out the SQL in VBA using the form parameters, but it would be pretty complex SQL given that there are a few queries in the chain. Any suggestions as to a workaround? I considered using VBA to create a table from the query and then just referencing that table--I hate to make extra steps though. vba ms-access share|improve this question asked Jun 20 '14 at 21:41 rryanp 53541534 add a comment| 4 Answers 4 active oldest votes up vote 4 down vote accepted The reason you get the error when you just try to open the recordset is that your form is not open and when you try to access [forms]![frmReportingMain] it's null then you try to get a property on that null reference and things blow up.

This is the changed code: Dim rec As Recordset Dim db As Database Dim X As Variant Set db = CurrentDb Set rec = db.OpenRecordset("UnitMoreInfoQ") Const msgTitle As String = "Open Explorer" Const cExplorerPath As String = "C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE" Const cExplorerSwitches As String = " /n,/e" cFilePath = rec("ProjFilePath") It highlights this line: Set rec = db.OpenRecordset("UnitMoreInfoQ") This is the first code: Dim rec As Recordset Dim db As Database Dim X As Variant Set db = CurrentDb Set rec = db.OpenRecordset("ProjectMoreInfoQ") Const msgTitle As String = "Open Explorer" Const cExplorerPath As String = "C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE" Const cExplorerSwitches As String = " /n,/e" cFilePath = rec("ProjFilePath") As you can see, the line has the same amount of parameters: Set rec = db.OpenRecordset("ProjectMoreInfoQ") This has gotten me quite confused for awhile because of this.

Microsoft ISV Community Center > Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) Question 0 Sign in to vote too few I've followed the guidance in the following question, which was the same as my problem: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/isvvba/thread/0ad076f7-cc34-4fda-b9ad-abf90bb92855, with no luck in the end. My code (VBA 6.3, Access 2003) follows. I'm trying to use a select query with one field equal to a text box (c1) on a form (f1), then ultimately, compare it to data in another text box (c2, f2).

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sunday, March 21, 2010 7:24 PM Reply | Quote Answers 0 Sign in to vote Nadia, I apologize. I feel very mindless right now (or overworked.) The SQL was syntactically correct, but the relational operation of the query was not correct. Once I corrected it, the error went away. I greatly appreciate your attempts to help.

It's quick & easy. too few parameters on openrecordset P: n/a Not Me Hi, When I do the following in vba: Set rst = db.OpenRecordset(sql) I get the too few parameters (expected 3) error. I've seen quite a lot of this on google but all seem to be caused by incorrect sql, but mine works fine when I print it out into a query. From what I can tell the parameters are optional so I don't really understand the problem. I have dim-ed the recordset as dao.recordset. Cheers, Chris Nov 12 '05 #1 Post Reply Share this Question 2 Replies P: n/a Allen Browne The error message means that JET is unable to resolve some of the names in the query. If the query contains things to Forms!SomeForm!SomeControl, it will work in the query window, but not in code. The solution is to concatenate the value of the controls into the sql string. That is, instead of: sql = "SELECT ... WHERE SomeField = Forms!SomeForm!SomeControl;" use: sql = "SELECT ... WHERE SomeField = " & Forms!SomeForm!SomeControl & ";" -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.
