    Question Find function not working in form or in table.

    Click image for larger version. 
<br /><script async src=
    Name: Capture.PNG  Views: 10  Size: 13.4 KB  ID: 49885" class="thumbnail" style="float:CONFIG" />
    When using the find function, I can not find part numbers inside the table. Attached is an image of what I'm experiencing within the table, I Search for TES-BASE-200-#4 and although it is in the database it tells me it cant find it. The same is true when using the find button on the form. Any clue as to why this is happening?

    Hi,

    My Access is in Portuguese, but change Match to "any part of the field" and see if it works.

    I tested only with characters before the "#" and it worked.
    Perhaps Access understands that this character is part of special words/characters.


    OBS: I'm sorry for the grammar... I'm using Google Translator because my english is bad.

    Is that a lookup field? You can't do a Find and Replace on a lookup field but I don't know if you can use Find on one. Another thing to watch out for is leading spaces in the field or search term.
