Hello,
...I'm not sure if I'm making this question more complex or not or if it's even possible? (I would think so) Anyway...What I am trying to do is create a form in which I can input more than one criteria into a field - We will cal it txtSetValues. Then via a button open a query that will use txtCode as the criteria for searching records in a table. The
table is called: tblMASTERTABLE-EmpCount
query is called: qryEmpCount
The table currently only has two field; ORG and Name. The criteria I have in ORG is: Like [Forms]![frmEmpCount]![txtCode]
I currently can find any specific ORG just fine. I can also use the wildcard and that works fine. But how can I set it up so that I can enter in multiples... For example, I would like to find all employees that there org is either; AL001 OR AL010 OR AL100 - The wildcard will 'Almost' do it in some circumstances, but it may gather some orgs that I don't want in this list. I hope I am explaining this in an easily understood fashion?
Thanks,

P.S. Now I know I could just make multiple fields in the form (ie; txtCode2, txtCode3,etc) and then just add those as criteria in the query, but I was hoping that I wouldn't have to do that.
