Selecting funds in funds reports

I would like to see check off box's to select the funds to show in any report where there you select the funds to include in the report, instead of the present 'to' 'from' selection, which is the only option available now.
This would apply to any report where there is a choice of funds to include in the report.
Example:
Fund 1: X
Fund 2:
Fund 3: X
Fund 4: X
Fund 5:
******
******
Fund 9: X

As a programmer, I can say that is actually quite hard to do when you have you have no idea how many funds someone is using (there are locations that have said they have over 30).

What would be a better idea is the same type of entry that is used when you're printing from something like MS Word. An entry box where you enter the numbers like this:

01, 03, 05-07

There I want fund 01, 03, 05, 06 & 07.

All that takes is a easy parsing routine.
