Spyglass icon in a form

[GeorgeJ]

Hello. I have a form and one of the controls in the form is a textbox. I want to make it so that when the user types text into this box, the form filters through records of the form's recordset and only shows those which contain the text in a specific field. I'm pretty confident I can figure how to do this using the filter property, but what I would really like to know is, how might I put the spyglass icon onto the form just to the right of the textbox?. I guess one way is to do a screen capture and then move the entire image to paint and then crop it and save it as a file and then create a picture control on the form with its source being that file, but is there a better way?



Thank you in advance.

Unless you can find an icon image somewhere, basically have to build your own. Screen capture and crop is one way.

Can find images with Word - insert clip art and search for 'spyglass'. I got several retrieved, one is a magnifying glass jpg. Insert into Word document then right click Save As Picture. Save to location of choice. Then embed that image in Image control or OLE Object control.

I did a search of my C drive and found png file under my AutoCad program.

If you're using a button, you can click on the ellipsis on the picture property of the button, you should get bunch of options including that one. If you just want a picture on the form, you're probably stuck with what you described.
