Error 3125 doesn't apply here. So, what's the problem.

<Name> is not a valid name. Make sure that it does not include invalid
characters or punctuation and that it is not too long. (Error 3125)
The specified name does not follow standard naming conventions or is not a
valid parameter or alias name. Check your entry to make sure you have not
included invalid characters or punctuation and that the name is not too long.

I get the above error message only when trying to run my parameter query.
I've named it "Status Report Query" and then tried "Reports I Want" and have
also tried other simple names. I really don't think Error 3125 applies here
but I can't figure out what's wrong. Please advise.

Are you consistantly enclosing the fieldnames (parameter names, tablenames,
etc.) in [square brackets]?

You could also open the query in SQL view and post it here. Someone might spot
the problem... and we can't see your monitor from here.
