I have a form with checkboxes used to select certain values. These checkboxes
allow users to query data from a table called CATS. A sample of this table is
provided below:

I am currently using a query to select records where the WBS Code contains a
letter 'E' in the fifth character. The query that I use is provided below:

SELECT tbl_CATS.[WBS Code], tbl_CATS.[User Name], Max(tbl_CATS.Date) AS
MaxOfDate
FROM tbl_CATS
GROUP BY tbl_CATS.[WBS Code], tbl_CATS.[User Name]
HAVING (((tbl_CATS.[WBS Code]) Like "***[E]*"));

I have designed a form to allow the user to select limited options. I would
then like the form to generate a query (like the one above based on these
options (if the checkbox is selected)

If the E-Code checkbox is selected:

SELECT tbl_CATS.[WBS Code], tbl_CATS.[User Name], Max(tbl_CATS.Date) AS
MaxOfDate
FROM tbl_CATS
GROUP BY tbl_CATS.[WBS Code], tbl_CATS.[User Name]
HAVING (((tbl_CATS.[WBS Code]) Like "***[E]*"));

If the L-Code checkbox is selected:

SELECT tbl_CATS.[WBS Code], tbl_CATS.[User Name], Max(tbl_CATS.Date) AS
MaxOfDate
FROM tbl_CATS
GROUP BY tbl_CATS.[WBS Code], tbl_CATS.[User Name]
HAVING (((tbl_CATS.[WBS Code]) Like "***[L]*"));

If the M-Code checkbox is selected:

SELECT tbl_CATS.[WBS Code], tbl_CATS.[User Name], Max(tbl_CATS.Date) AS
MaxOfDate
FROM tbl_CATS
GROUP BY tbl_CATS.[WBS Code], tbl_CATS.[User Name]
HAVING (((tbl_CATS.[WBS Code]) Like "***[M]*"));

Many Thanks
