Searching through ALL fields

[camaroltd82]

Is it possible to search through all fields of my table with a query? I have several searches by certain fields, but my user wants to be able to search through ALL of the available fields, is this possible?

thanks

Yes you can do this by puting or like* in the criteria of your query. The * returns all records.

Just reading over your post again just realised you want to search on all fields and not the records in the one field. You could maybe try a Query by Form. I have an example of this if you're not sure.

Email me if you want this as it's too big in size to post
