    finding records in a database....

    Ok I have a form that multiple users use to key in data. I want the user to be able to find records that have already been keyed. They are able to do that now just by setting the "Data Entry" to NO in the properties but then you risk someone one accidentally typing over data in another record because the first record always shows.



    When I change that to Yes then my Search function doesnt work.... I hope that is enough for someone to understand my issue ...

    Help!!!

    sounds like u need to utilize the FINDRECORD method in code. it takes an argument, and finds a record that matches a field with taht criteria. check it out and post back if you have trouble with it
