Re-using sql Code for access qry

I have a form that prints a report based off of a query for a specific table. If I want to use this form for other tables that have similar data but for certain reasons must be kept seperate tables how would I improve on what I am currently doing?

Currently I have a select case statement placed in the Private Sub Report_Open for the report in question that sets the report.recordsource property to an SQL statement version from a query. Basically all the code is the same except for the table name. Is there a way from the qry builder that I can change the table dynamically through code while keeping the fields I have already selected or am I correct in using the method I have in place.

Thanks

You could pass the table name as a string parameter to a function containing the query builder. The table name could be obtained from a listbox or combobox on the form.
