Hi

I have a front end Access program on my local computer based on a MySql database stored on a server, using ODBC to connect. In the db I have like about 3000 records.

I inserted a Search button on the form, which works fine if I should make a search using the Whole Field, it lasts like 4 seconds to find the record Im looking for.

My problem is that if I try to search a field using Match Any Part of Field, it takes like forever to find it (like 8 minutes).

My form is based on a query, but when I do this search I notice too much internet activity, like if the search is being performed one by one on the server instead of my local query (Im I making sense?)

Is there something I can do to make this search more efficient?

Thank you for any help.
 
Extra info:

I did a search directly into the query table, with the search button on the Access main menu, and it came out with the same result... took forever
 
Never mind, thanks I already have the answer...
