    Multi-column filtering

    I have inherited a MS Works database file which I have imported into Access.
    I want to filter the data so that only lines containing a defined keyword are displayed and printed.


    I can see how to do this if the keyword is in a specific column but it could occur in any column.
    How can I filter on keywords in multiple columns?
