    Search based on form

    I have a form with a field "txtSearchText" which my query then uses to filter records before displaying a form.



    Is it possible to build a query criteria that searches for any of the words in the field? So "John Smith" would find anything with "John" or "Smith" in?

    Thanks
    Chris
