Wild Card Concatenated with User Input

R

Roy

I am using an .adp file which is connected to the SQL
Server. I have created a query stored procedure. I now
am trying to search through one field, called NOTES, for
whatever the user inputs. In the criteria cell for the
column NOTES I type in:

LIKE "%" & @userinput & "%"

Userinput is basically the message box that appears so
the user can enter a phrase to search for. This does not
seem to work. Anybody have any solutions. Thank You!

Already answered in another newsgroup to which you posted the same question.

If you feel you need to post to more than one group (HINT: it's seldom
necessary), please have the courtesy to cross-post (send the one message to
all groups at once), rather than multi-post (send individual messages to
each group). In this way, all responses to your post will be available
together, regardless of what group the responder was in, and the rest of us
won't have to read your post multiple times. (It also uses fewer server
resources)

If you're using Microsoft's web interface to post, please note that you can
type the names of the various groups into the Newsgroup box. Separate each
newsgroup name with a semicolon.

Note that it's generally consider to be A Bad Thing to cross-post to more
than about 2 or 3 newsgroups. (In fact, at
http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/features/2001/Mar01/Mar27pmvp.asp
Microsoft suggests that "One group will suffice")

And sorry, I don't remember which other newsgroup it was. See the downside
of multiposting?
