Dynamic SQL for a template

Hi

 

I have a template for a report where I have the following issue:

 

The report consist of several queries that all depend on the same variables being present ind the database, i.e.

SELECT ...

FROM ...

WHERE VAR1 = A AND VAR2 = B

 

Every time I make a new report using the template I have to go into every single query and change VAR1 = A and VAR2 = B. Is it instead possible to set A and B to a value from outside the query? Maybe by making a simple table where i set REF1 = A and REF2 = B and then reference this from within the queries with VAR1 = table[REF1] and VAR2 = table[REF2]? In that way i would only have to change the table reference whenever I make a new version from the template.

 

Thanks
