    Question Looking to create a form that has search functions and editable fields.

    I apologize for the very beginner question that has probably been asked thousands of times.

    I am trying to create a form that has a list of fields (Name, Phone, Acct Number,etc) that can be used to put in search criteria with a search button.
    Below that, I want a list or records that match.
    Below that would be the fields from the record selected in the middle that can be edited.

    We are moving from Excel and are looking for a clean interface for data entry while having all fields available on the back end.

    If there are any guides, how to's, wizards, youtube videos, etc, I'd appreciate it as I am fairly new to Access.
    Alternately if there are inexpensive 3rd party products that can produce this, I'd appreciate them as well.



    Thank you.
    Matthew

    Simple example as a starter. Tried to PM you but can't because you're a newbie!
