Default Only as the user once.

I have a spreadsheet that gets it data from an external source. I have a
query setup that refreshed the data.

However, I need input from the user to say what month and year they want to
see. This works fine except for 2 things. Firstly when I run the query with
the query window open you get the window and it says whatever you called your
variable. I make the name something like "What Month", but when in normal use
(the query window is not open) the window doesnt display the variable name.
How can I get the input window to tell the user what it wants?

My second problem is that there is an OR statement in the query. This means
that although the variables input by the user stay the same, the user has to
put them in twice, once for each OR line in the query. I have given the two
lines the same variable names, but the system still asks twice. How can I
stop this from happening? I have a new sheet to produce and it will have 4 OR
statements meaning the input of the same information 4 times.
