Question : I want three selects, but only require one select to have input

I want three selects, but only require one select to have input; typical the user will only know one of the three.
I am using Crystal Reports 11. I have created three Parameter Fields (Account NO, Enter Cons Name and Enter Joint Name) from which to select. In the Select Expert I have chosen the three fields, the Formula Editor shows:
{Blmdtl.ACCOUNT} = {?AccountNo} and
{Blmmsr.CONS NAME} startswith {?Enter Cons Name} and
{Blmmsr.JOINT NAME} startswith {?Enter Joint Name}
When I run the report using only the {?AccountNo} select, I get 0 Records.
If I try to use {?Enter Cons Name} only it bounces me back to {?AccountNo}
Please help.

Answer : I want three selects, but only require one select to have input

Basically it means that your assembly that you create is unique,

For creating use SN.EXE

A strong name consists of the assembly's  identity—its simple text name, version number, and culture information  (if provided)—plus a public key and a digital signature. It is generated  from an assembly file (the file that contains the assembly manifest,  which in turn contains the names and hashes of all the files that make  up the assembly), using the corresponding private key. Microsoft® Visual  Studio® .NET and other development tools provided in the Windows  Software Development Kit (SDK) can assign strong names to an assembly.  Assemblies with the same strong name are expected to be identical.
You  can ensure that a name is globally unique by signing an assembly with a  strong name. In particular, strong names satisfy the following  requirements:  
Strong names guarantee name uniqueness by  relying on unique key pairs. No one can generate the same assembly name  that you can, because an assembly generated with one private key has a  different name than an assembly generated with another private key.

Strong  names protect the version lineage of an assembly. A strong name can  ensure that no one can produce a subsequent version of your assembly.  Users can be sure that a version of the assembly they are loading comes  from the same publisher that created the version the application was  built with.

Strong names provide a strong integrity  check. Passing the .NET Framework security checks guarantees that the  contents of the assembly have not been changed since it was built. Note,  however, that strong names in and of themselves do not imply a level of  trust like that provided, for example, by a digital signature and  supporting certificate.

When you reference a  strong-named assembly, you expect to get certain benefits, such as  versioning and naming protection. If the strong-named assembly then  references an assembly with a simple name, which does not have these  benefits, you lose the benefits you would derive from using a  strong-named assembly and revert to DLL conflicts. Therefore,  strong-named assemblies can only reference other strong-named  assemblies.
