List Boxes and Wildcards

I have created a query, form and a report. Based upon the selection of
the Listboxes on the form, the report will be generated. The Listboxes
are based fields of a table using the select command.

My question is this: How do I put a wildcard into the listbox so that
all of the records for that field can be selected?

Thanks,

Ray.

Let's say a listbox has one column coming from the emp file.
strSQL = "Select EmpName From Employees Order By EmpName " & _
"UNION " & _
"Select '*' As EmpName From Employees"
Me.Listbox.Rowsource = strSQL

You may have to futz with the order by line, it may be in the first or
last SQL statement.
