Hi everyone,
Im relativly new here, Ive only been using access 2003 for a while (and, btw, finding it very hard to get my head around!
)
Ive so far created a fairly basic db, with table and a form; with names, addresses, contact numbers, appointment dates etc.
How do i create a "search" box, so I can tap in a surname, or an address and get a list of results?
Ideally this would be in the form of a switchboard (is that the right term?) so that when i start the database I get a small window, with a few options on ie "New Customer" and a "Search" and maybe a "reports" button as well.
The most important option to me is the seach function, if anyone can help id be very gratefull.
thanks
Andy
