Hi all,

I have a number of tables that has information about applications (people applying to receive benefits from a program).

I will be using a view (or mulitple views) to display the data in a grid. I want to give my users the options of displaying:
- all applications
- completed applications
- incomplete applications

What is the best way to handle this? once the size of the data gets large, Filter's are not efficient, right? I could have 3 different views and change the RecordSource for each.

I've thought about somehow having a view parameter that will collect the entries required, but don't quite know how to handle this. If the main table has a field, lCompleted, obviously, I can query for all completed applications or all uncompleted applications, w/something like:

... WHERE lCompleted = ?Thisform.lShowCompleted

But how to expand that to query for all applications? this might be totally obvious, but I can't see it.

Thanks for any input. J
