Default Report Filter Question

Hello!

I have tblEmployee with 400 employees and a tblDepartment with 20
departments.

What is the best way to set it up so that I can print a report of ALL
employees and their associated department (no filter) and then have
the user select (via a dropdown) the department that they want to see
a report on.

I was thinking that a button on my Report Switchboard form opens
another form with just a combobox tied to tblDepartment, and then that
combobox supplies the filter for the report...

I currently have one query with 20 reports and that seems crazy. And
20 queries with one report doesn't seem right either. So there has to
be a way to do one query, one report, and then some intermediate user
thing.

??
