Search function

[nick5196]

Hi, I wish to make a search box which will search through a table full of student names. I would like it to be similar to the "itunes" search function which only displays albums containing the typed letters in them.

Thanks

I have a demo database file at:
www.askdoctoraccess.com/DownloadableFiles/DemoFindAndFilterUsingComboBoxes.zip

This demo has several different Find and/or Filter options. You may be able to find something that will do what you want.

thanks for this but I specifically would like a search box into which letters can be typed and any names containing those letters are shown.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Just for the record, one of the text boxes on the form in the database I refered you to does exactly what you want.
