Need help!

[Uncolouredcolors]

Hey guys. I don't know if this is the right place for this thread, but here it goes. I need some help creating a searching form and to show the results inside the form! It's like a Library type searching. U know, u want to search for some type of monument or so and it shows the results, all the info, photos and that! Please, i really need help because i don't know that much about access and i've search a lot for tutorials and don't seem to find!

make a continuous record form
in the header, put a box or combo to do the filtering.
in the after update of the control, filter the results,

me.filter = "[state]='" & cboStates & "'"
me.filterOn = true

Yeah! Something like the Universal Search! That's amazing! I want something like that, where u search for words or dates and it shows all the correspondants! and the Details window is genius because I need to show some photos too! Can you help me out with this?

then you must learn some Access principles.
Cant do that here.
