Search customization

Hi all,

Is there a way to create customized search from in the list page?
I have table called orders, where there are two important fields: 1) status, and 2) date.

I need to know how can I create a search form like this?
From <input_date> To <input_date> Status <combo>
After I create it I want to replace it with basic search form in the list page.
Can you help?
Thanks,

Fawaz
