    Create a search box

    Hello,



    I have approx. 50 files (combination of .ppt, excel and word ) stored in a folder "X" and I would like to create a search tab using MS Access. My input is the text or any information from the files which is a combination of .ppt, excel and word. How do I create a search tab?

    For clarity, would the search be looking for file names or file contents? Can you provide more detail?

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