Form/Subform with Parameter

I have a form with a subform, the Link Child Field and the Link Master Field
are set to MasterID. The subform contains actions due and all is working
great. However, I want the subform to contain a parameter of: Between
[BEGIN DATE ] and [END DATE] and only show the actions due between these two
dates. The problem is that it is asking the parameter question each time I
move to a different record. Is there a way to have every record reflect the
parameter of the subform and only enter the parameter one time?
 
Did you put the parameter in the query that feeds the subform or somewhere
else?

I would suggest putting unbound textboxes named txtBeginDate and txtEndDate on
the main form and using a criterion such as
= Forms!YourMainForm!txtBeginDate AND < DateAdd("d", 1, Forms!YourMainForm!txtEndDate)

rather than prompting for the criteria.
