    Can a query reference another query?

    Can a query criteria reference another query like a query references a Form? I noticed that when I link the tables the query runs slow but when I added in as criteria it runs quick…. I entered what you see below but get an error.

    You could use a subquery in the criteria.
    If posting code please use code tags, see here.

    I've never done that... I think. I googled it & don't see how it could be of any help.
