    Search for multiple records

    Hello,

    I have a database at work that keeps an inventory of cameras by location. Every week I get a repair estimate sheet that lists cameras by serial number that need to be repaired. This list is sent to me in excel. I am trying to make it where I can just copy the column of serial numbers from the excel list sent to me and paste it directly into the database to return my information for those cameras. I would like to do this in a datasheet view where I paste the column, it looks them up and returns the information I need(warranty dates) by serial number. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi,

    Can't you just open up the table where the data is installed and paste the data there? Than create a query that allows you to search for the data you want?
    Or am I not getting you question?

    Regards
    Luke
