    yes/no search query

    Hi guys,

    i have a form with employee details..and there i have a filed with the option yes/no that means that the current employee is either active or not...

    what i will like to do is to create a query that will allow me search through the records and allow me to search only active or only inactive.

    hope you can help me.

    thanks in advance.

    Can't you use the query builder to create the query you need?

    lets say i want to put that search option in the form is it possible?

    just put the name or surname then you have one or two tick boxes that you can select to search all or only active or inactive...

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