I'm very new to Access, so I'll be having lots of questions in the near
future, I'm sure. So thanks in advance! I am creating a personnel database,
and have a form which has everyone's name and some additional information on
it. Can I make it so that if you're looking for a specific individual you
can begin typing their name and it will automatically "figure out" who you're
looking for after 4 or 5 characters? I hope this makes sense and I hope it's
not a stupid question. Thanks.
 
Use a combo box to select the user of interest. What you're describing is
