Can you combine the fields?
If you're using SQL to write your queries or recordsource, you could use a statement like this:
Select * from MyTable where [field1] & " " & [field2] & " " & [field3] like '*MyCriteria*'
If you're using the query grid, you can do the same thing by using the Build tool and selecting all your fields. In your grid, the field would read:
CombineFields: [field1] & " " & [field2] & " " & [field3]
and the criteria field would read:
Like "*mycritera*"
Hope it helps....

Find no help in the Dbase section so I figured I would post here. I'm making a very diverse database for mutiple state usage and I'm having trouble figuring out what kind of VBA code I would need to be able to search across tables. I would like my endusers to be able to type in Jones and it would list not only all the people with the last name Jones but also all people who worked for Jones Co. or lived on Jones street etc.
Thanks
