Query a database

Hi All,

I'm new to this and could really use some help:

I'm looking to have a user type something into a text box on a form and then on button press check that against values held in a single column of a single table in a database that I already have linked to the project. If it finds the item in the table Do X if not Do Y

I've not idea where to start any help/advice greatly received.

Thanks
Nick

I'm sure if you search this forum for "query a X database" where X could equal "access" "sql server" "Oracle" or any other type you may be using, that you will find some good examples.

Try that first, then post a reply with the code you're having issues if you can't get any further.

Good luck,

Justin
