A clue to why they behave that way is if you enter the Column Headings
property, you won't need to declare your data parameter types. For instance
if you have a date criteria but set your column headings property like:
Column Headings: "Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr"
You don't need to specify the data types of your parameters.

I wonder why Crosstab queries behave that way...I was stuck with a
crosstab a few weeks ago until I figured that out on my own...

This question gets asked and answered several times per week. You can use
parameters/criteria in crosstab queries if you explicitly identify the
data
types of the criteria. Select Query-Parameters and enter

Forms!frmA!txtB Date/Time
