Sorry June7 for not being more specific, I will look at these links you provided. I want to be able to perform a search of all entries made, within the entry there is a field that has a coding (ie 031-200218-0101-1613), it is the last 4 digits of this field I want to search with. There are currently more than 36000 entries and I need to be able to pull all entries for a specific 4 digit code. This 4 digit code is referring to a building. If it is more helpful and you are willing I can zip the database and attach to a post.
Using first method (dynamic parameterized query), form RecordSource could be like:
SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE Right([fieldname],4) = [Forms]![formname].[controlname];
