Default Parameter/Criteria option not available for External Data Query

Display the criteria pane View--Criteria

Select a field and in the Value field type a parameter name in square
brackets like [parm1].

You can then select View-- parameters

For help look ínto the MS Query help for "parameter" and then "create
a new query" and then "create a parameter query".

When you leave MS Query on the next dialogue you can select
"Paremeters" and define "how a parameter value is obtained" which lets
you e.g. select a value from a cell on your worksheet.
