Try this: set the active to false first, then change the SQL to include 
the parameter. Go the params property and set the value. Then set the 
active property to true.

Sure. In the onClick, change the value in the params array. Then 
requery(), something like:

  function someButton_onClick()
    form.L28CLASS1.params[ "mYearPaid" ] = form.entryfield1.value
    form.L28CLASS1.requery()
