Searching in forms

[JaB]

Hi there

I have a created a query and a subsequent form for other users to use to
recall data. One of my fields in the form is a name box, does anyone know
the best method of setting up a search facility for this field that will
bring back all relevant records?

Thanks

If you just need to search on one field at a time, you can import this into
your database:
Find as you type - Filter forms with each keystroke

If you want to create a form where the user can type into several search
boxes and you find the matches, see:
