i say build your query based on the information you DO have. for
example...

if you have all three variables, do something like this...

SELECT fname, lname, location
 FROM employees
 WHERE fname = <varFName> AND
       lname = <varLName> AND
       location = <varLocation>

alternatively, if you've only got First Name and Location to work
with...

SELECT fname, lname, location
 FROM employees
 WHERE fname = <varFName> AND
       location = <varLocation>

and one more example (First Name, Last Name)...

SELECT fname, lname, location
 FROM employees
 WHERE fname = <varFName> AND
       lname = <varLName>


this requires a little more scripting and maybe some If statements, but
i don't know enough about SQL to write a complete query that would do
the same thing.

hopefully i haven't led you astray.
