Default Blank field in form

I have a query that gets some criteria (City and State) from a form.
I have the State field set up as a ComboBox connected to a local
table
I created. If a user was to type in a City (i.e. "Springfield") and
then leave the State field empty, then the query would have no
results.

How do I make the query so that if one of the fields on the form is
left empty it will run for all possibilities (i.e. look for all
Springfields in any state)?

It would help tremendously if you had provided the SQL view of your query.
Without that I can suggest you might use a where clause like:

WHERE [State] = Forms!AForm!cboState or Forms!AForm!cboState Is Null;
