WEIRD parameter window issue

[GD]

Has anybody heard of this one?

I'm working in a database that uses a parameter query, and the results are
displayed within a form. So, three criteria are required in the parameter
windows when clicking on the command button on the switchboard to open the
query. The problem is that these parameter windows continue to appear
periodically every several minutes (perhaps every time the database gets
refreshed automatically?). Selecting cancel in the first window makes it go
away, but it gets very annoying to have these windows pop up for no reason.
Does anybody know what could cause this?

Unfortunately, I don't have access to the query or form details. I was
hoping someone had at least heard of this problem before.

Thanks!!!!

Then how do you expect to change anything?

Ummm... all I can say is "correct the error in the code". Without seeing the
code it's more than a bit difficult to guess what that error might be. I'd
speculate that there is a Requery in some form event (the Timer event perhaps)
but of course that's a stab in the dark.
