We have approximately 4,500 students in tblStudents, and as you would
imagine, there are numerous students with the same last name.
I have a Find a Record combo box on a form where the user types in the
student's last name, hits the Enter key, and Access displays that student's
info. This works well unless there are 1 or more users with the same last
name. If the user types in the lastname and firstname, it still goes to the
first student with that last name.
The user can use the drop down box to select another student with the same
last name and that works. But it would be nice if the user could simply type
the last and first name into the combo box. There must be a way to properly
handle this. I'm guessing I'll have to chane the query as it's currently
constructed.
The current query has 4 columns:
1. StudentID [hidden]
2. StudentLastName
3. StudentFirstName
4. MI
Thanks,
Robert
