Oooh.... I want to see it too! I have over 1235 tables that I am putting into one table but this code would be great in the meantime. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Klos, Susan Sent: Friday, August 19, 2005 11:27 AM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: [AccessD] "Find" combo box searches more than one table Yes, Kath, I think that is what I am looking for. Can you send me a copy of the code? Susan Klos Senior Database Analyst Evaluation and Reporting Florida Department of Education 850-245-0708 sc 205-0708 Maybe Susan means that the users would like to have a 'search function' which will find something anywhere in the database. I have had that request before, eg. for a database that tracked travel agent wholesalers, travel agent retailers, suppliers, clients etc. Users would get an inquiry from someone and wanted to type in their name and find all instances anywhere in the system. It depends whether you need to populate a combo or not. In my case I created an unbound text box and users type in any part of the person's surname and hit enter. The code then searches through the relevant tables one by one and populates a results table.
