    Find existing record with multiple criteria

    Alrighty, what I'd like to achieve is to have when a user enters a surname (field "Family Name") and first name (field "Given Name"), as an After Update event (I think?), Access checks the existing records in the table (which changes for each event*, but can just use me.recordset I think) for the same two values, and if there is one (or more) pops up a MsgBox.



    I have NFI where to start, tried DLookup but got confused!


    *not my design, I'm retrofitting an existing DB

    I think no-one has replied because your question needs some clarification.

    Can you post code fragments showing the recordset source?
    What do you mean about the table changing after each event?

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
