Run Report based on user specified dates

I have a database that has many reports the user can choose to run. Some of
the reports are designed to be sorted by date (i.e., date received, by
quarter, by year, etc.). The users have requested that they get to choose
the date range (specifically by quarter or the year) so that only those
records show in the report. How do I go about doing this? Ideally, when the
user chooses the report they wish to open, I would like a dialog box to open
and ask them "What quarter do you wish to see?" or "What year to you wish to
see?"

A perhaps more-flexible approach would be to create a form that lets the
user select the report, and select the criteria. This way, you aren't
subject to the whims and vagaries of how users enter their criteria.
