How do I create a name search ?

[nightviperdark]

Hi everyone , Hope you can help me out with this question.

I have been given the task of creating in Access a database / form that is capable of searching for an employee by surname and christian name.

It is required that when the operator uses the prog they can start typing the surname , and in turn as soon as the first letter is typed it displays the relevant surnames starting with that letter , and a list is formed of the surnames beneath.
Sounds a bit long winded but needs to look like a a phone directory.

Info that would be required is Surname name , Christain name , Dept , Ext , Location etc.



If anyone could assist me in what to do , I would be very much appreciated.

Look at Combo Boxes.

There is even a Wizard to help do this.
