Hello,
I have one spreadsheet with lots of client information on it - too much to meaningfully display on one form. I have broken the information up into different forms representing different categories (for example: "General" "Purchases" "Mailing"). I then assembled those forms into tabs within a single form, "MainControl", first using the "Navigation Form" feature, and then instead switching to the subform tab control feature.
What I would like to have is a search bar at the top of my MainControl parent form, above the tabs, where I could search for a client ID number and all of the subforms in the tabs would present information on that client. In previous Access projects, I have relied on copy pasted single-form search buttons that do not work in this application. I have tried in vain to make adjustments to these buttons (I have some programming know-how, but VBA is lost on me), but I have now given up and am hoping someone here might be able to help.
Thank you very much!
