I want to get opinions before I start design or functionality my query filters:

Lets Say :

I have one report with several fields:

I want to do all of these querie via the report, keep in mind each field is coming from a drop down box, so the filters are going to be base off of the selected item from any particular dropbox, also keep in mind the drop box only has values that exists no matter what

drowDownbox 1    = A values           drowDownbox 2    = A values
drowDownbox 3    = C values          drowDownbox 4    = E values

Select A, B, C, D, E, F
From   Table1
Where (A = ?) And (B = ?)

Select A, B, C, D, E, F
From   Table1
Where (A = ?) And (B = ?)

Select A, B, C, D, E, F
From   Table1
Where (A = ?) And (B = ?)

Select A, B, C, D, E, F
From   Table1
Where (A = ?) And (B = ?) AND (E = ?)

Select A, B, C, D, E, F
From   Table1
Where (A = ?) And (C = 'FAIL') AND (E = 'PASS')

etc..........................

it is existing data that you filter by via the new report i just added

Either it is a filter or it is data; not likely to be both and I know that for your system it is nearly certainly filter parameters in the drop down boxes.

Yes its coming from a drop down box, they get to select filter from the drop down box, I have it working thanks.

Are you sure that "each field is coming from a drop down box"? Do you really mean that all fields in the reports all come from drop down boxes?
