Multiple Searches?

[acrow]

Hi folks,

I can't seem to wrap my head around this concept. I need someone to please give me some guidance.

I am using VS2010 / SQL2005 - ASP.NET VB

Lets say my table looks like the following

Fileds: Shirt_Type / Shirt_Color / Pants_Type / Pants_Color
Data: Long Sleeve / Blue / Jeans / Blue
Data: Short Sleeve / Green / Jeans / Red
Data: Short Sleeve / Yellow / Dress / Black


I am trying to perform a search based off any value.

for example lets say my search form is as follows:

Shirt Type: Long Sleeve
Shirt Color: Green
Pants Type: Jeans
Pants Color: Black

obviously a standard search would return nothing because there is not a data row that matches all these items. How can I do a search that would return every row containing Long Sleeve, Green Colors, Jeans and Black?

Please help!

Thanks,

Aaron

I presume your "standard search" uses the AND operator to join the conditions, in which case simply use OR instead.
