Hello,

I would like to know how can i do a search of a specif file in an x drive and look inside a few other folders and then print whatever data or drawing i'm looking for, using Ms Access?

But I also have a scanner that reads a label and then (this is where Access comes in) search for the object to finally show and print it.

Hope u understand it :-)

Edith:

Do you mean that you have an Index of documents in a table in Access, and you want to select that document (say with a Form) and maybe using an "Open" button, open the file in the appropriate application?

Do you want to use a file browser to select a file that is not the Indexed document but is related to it?

Hi,

Yes, that is what I meant. ( even though is not yet created...because i don't know how to, yet.)

Please, can you guide me through it?
