    Searching a field on a record [HELP]

    Hello,



    I have a form with many fields, one of them called "CUSTOMER NAME", that contains their full name.

    The problem is the following, I need to be able to search any words independently whether they are separate or not.

    Example, Customer name: JACKSON ROSE, JACOB STEVEN

    Is there any way I can search for "JACKSON JACOB" and get this match: JACKSON ROSE, JACOB STEVEN ?

    Thank you very match for any help.

    Not exactly.

    You can use query with wildcard criteria: Like "*" & Forms!formname!controlname & "*"

    Then enter JAC as the search criteria.
