Use the WHERE clause. E.g.:

SELECT ...
FROM ...
WHERE date_column in (#8/12/04#, #8/11/04#)

or

WHERE Year(date_colum n) in (2001, 2002, 2003)

This is a vague question... you want to be able to specify *any*
combination of {month, day, year}? and return values? or a single
date or a single month? One way might be to have a start date broken
out, like

Start Month: [1-12] Start Day: [1-31] Start Year: [ ]

and then use VB to determine which controls are empty and open the
appropriate query based on what's filled in. (or assign a report's
recordsource based on the query you need or whatever). You can use
DateSerial to put the pieces together...

If you're only specifying a single day, then you can just create an
unbound textbox that's formatted as a date and then fill it in and
point your query at that.

SELECT ...
FROM ...
WHERE SomeDate = Forms!MyUnbound Form!MyDateCont rol;
