To create a single area direct link use the following form (this is case sensitive):

http://www.stats.indiana.edu/test/mike/laus/laus_view1.html?Z[ geo type ]?Y[ geo string ]?X[ year ]?W[ month ]

Geo type has the following values:

a = Indiana and counties
b = regions and msa's
c = states and U.S.

Geo string is the geo_sql accepted string that is listed in the geography array that matches the chosen type.
Picking a geography that doesn't match the type will create an error. Here is a correct usage example:

geo type = a
geo string = S18;C003 (this is Allen county)

Look at the source code for examples of acceptable geo strings.

Year is just the year as written. picking an invalid year will cause an error.

Month is the number code for the desired month. The available codes are:

o1 = January
02 = February
03 = March
04 = April
05 = May
06 = June
07 = July
08 = August
09 = September
10 = October
11 = November
12 = December
13 = Annual average
current = Current month
