 if you formulate a parameter query and you save it with the variables,
 you can later create a query in which only the variables have to be
 replaced by the expressions that you want. OpenOffice.org asks for these
 variables in a dialog as soon as you open the query.
 
 Can someone explains me what thats means ?

Can you explain more precise what do not understand?

I sent an earlier reply - but now that I see this I am left to ponder if 
the Help text author was not intending to explain what happens with the 
Query-in-Query feature.


Base allows you to use an existing query definition as if it where a 
table inside of a new query definition.


So - again assume you have a query Query1 that has a replacement 
parameter SearchName.


Later you could create a new Query2 that includes Query1 as a record 
source ( as if it where a table ) and when Query2 is RUN it would prompt 
for the SearchName parameter also.
