Crawling Querystring Parameters

I want to crawl links with Querystring parameters.  When I run the free generator, it does crawl the parameter I want, but with only three individual values.  I don't know how the generator found/picked those three.  I also don't know how I can manage this in the future as new values need to be added/removed.  There is one main parameter I would like to crawl and I need to crawl it for every value on the site.
Any suggestions?

Thank you.

Hello,

there must be a way to reach that page by clicking links, starting from homepage. i.e. you should put that link somewhere on your site so that generator can find it.

The problem is the querystring is not tied to a link.  The user can enter data or select a state, this allows the user to navigate directly to a page or select from a list of links based on their selected state.  There is no static link to select.  Is there a was to cheat the system and provide the links 5000px off screen or some other trick?

You can create a special page with links to all inner pages handcoded, and then just use that page as starting URL for generator.
