Noob to be helped with Forms and Queries

[Nightcrawler]

Hello everyone. Im new to access, I have version 2010. I tried to do a form and a search query by following a tutorial. I've gone through it a thousand times and restarted it several times, and at the end my form never works. When I click on a "search" button in the form, it brings up a query, but is empty.. no matter how I input the info...

Anybody knows why this happens? how can I fix it?

Controls on form for purpose of entering criteria must be UNBOUND, otherwise you change the data in record.

Hi and thank you for replying. Another quick question though, where do I change it to UNBOUND?

[June7]

Remove the field reference from the ControlSource property.

Hi June7... I changed it.. but as soon as I hit ok, it brings up a "Sintax Error" warning. Could it be something else?

[June7]

Just removing reference from ControlSource of each textbox should not produce that error.

it works! Thank you very much for your help June7
