Searching Access Database

[Guest]

might be a simple question, but how do i create a page with a form that will
search an access database on the server?

Hi Steve
If you are using an online access database you can use the database results
wizard to connect to the database and create a search and results page.
If you havent created a database and input form for the database here goes

The easiest way is as follows;
Insert a form in a page with fields you wish to use for the database.
right click on the form and choose form properties and select send to
database.
in the options tag select create database ,this will create an access
database in your website using the fields of your form and create the
connections to it from the form, so when you fill out the form the database
field will be populated

Thanks, but when I use the interface wizard, it only gives me three page
options to create:

Submission Form
Database Editor
Results Page

The results page only shows results. But I dont see any way to create a
search form that will produce the results page. What am i missing here?
Thanks!

You should be using the Database Results Wizard, not the Database Interface
Wizard.

Nevermind--found the dialogue box needed to create a search form.

Database RESULTS wizard not the INTERFACE wizard (two different things).
