Search for a record

G

Guest

Hello,

I would like to search for a record based on the ID field (in AutoNumber
format). Preferably, the users would stay on the form. I am thinking of
either a search box or a command button running a query; any solutions or
suggestions are welcomed.

Thank you in advance.

Have you thought about creating a seperate form that is used to search? You
would need to create the form with the record source as the table that holds
the ID. The text box that the user will enter the ID to search should be
unbound. You can then add a command button to search for whatever was entered
in the unbound text box.

Hope this helps.

command button that would search for the information that was entered in the
unbound text box.
