Query building methods based on mulitple parameter

Question

Hi all,

What is the best way to build a query (that depends on multiple parameters) for the purposes of updating a DataGridView from a database table.
Is creating query strings based on all the combination an efficient way of doing it?
(i.e.  query strings for all combinations like [a,x,1],[a,b,x,1],[a,c,x,1]....)
