Where do you usually find dropdown lists? On forms. So build a form
with your dropdown list. On the form put a button that opens the
report. Pass the filter in the Open event. Something like

Private Sub cmdOpenReport()
DoCmd.OpenReport "reportname", acPreview, "[SomeFieldInReport]=
" & Me.Controls("MyDropdown")

End sub.
