One of the easiest ways to accomplish this:
SELECT * FROM table
WHERE ((@status_id is null) or (status_id = @status_id))
and ((@date is null) or ([date] = @date))
and ((@other_parameter is null) or (other_parameter = @other_parameter))
etc.
This completely eliminates dynamic sql and allows you to search on one or more fields. By eliminating dynamic sql you remove yet another security concern regarding sql injection.
