In Cognos, you can create prompts for your queries. Here's an example of how you might set up the prompts for your requirements:

1. First Query (Show all values): You can simply create a query without any prompts if you want to show all values. The prompt will not be needed in this case because all data is being displayed.

2. Second Query (Show 3 values and hide 3 values): You can use the Prompt Builder to create a prompt for your users to input the specific records they want to view, while hiding others. Here's an example:

- Create a new prompt with appropriate properties such as name, type, etc.
- In the prompt settings, select the necessary fields you want the user to input. For example, select the first 3 and last 3 fields.
- Configure the prompt to hide the remaining values in your query by using the `case` statement:

```sql
CASE
WHEN <selected field> = <user's input> THEN <visible field>
ELSE NULL
END AS <alias name>
```

- Repeat this process for all fields you want to hide or show based on user input.
