I have a table with approx. 300 records. Is there a way to create a form
that will search for a particular record. I don't want to use "find &
replace" . I would like to create a form with a command button so that when
clicked searches for that particular record. I'm kinda a newbie so I have no
idea where to start. Please help!
 
Create a form and bound it to your record set or use a wizard to create the
form. Then in design mode add a command button and the wizard will allow you
to add a button to Find a record. You may have to turn the wizard on there
is a toggle button for that in the ToolBox labled Control Wizards.

Hi Cheyenne,

Alternatively, with the wizards enabled, create a combobox on the form you
are using for data entry/update to find (go to) the record you want. The
wizard will create the code for you.
