I have a database with several data tables. Several have data concerning classes which a individual students have taken, one which has data concerning classes required to be taken for a particular major, one which has data about what classes are being offered a particular semester, and one which contains which prerequisites are required for each course. What I am trying to get to happen is for the user to run a report and be prompted for a student's ID number. Access will then run a query based on the classes that student has taken and compare it to the classes required by his major, giving a report detailing the classes that still need to be taken. Access will then run a query based on that report and the data table which contains the information on classed being offered next semester and generate a report detailing the classes the student needs to take which are being offered next semester. Access then runs a report that takes each of the available classes and tells what prerequisites are required for each of those classes. I have accomplished this by creating the queries manually for one student but I want the process to be automated so all a user has to do is key in the student ID number and be given the final report. Can this be done and if so how?

In the query grid (design view) in the 'criteria' line in the field name for "student id" add (without the quotes)"[Enter Student ID]"
When the query is run there will be a message box that says "Enter Student ID" with a blank area for the entry.
