The FMS Visual sourcebook has two classes (CBoyerMoore and CFuzzystringsearch) that may accomplish the objective. Actually, if this solder contacts Luke Chung at FMS he may be able to get exactly the help he needs.

I am not one to ask for help until I have absolutely driven myself to the edge. It is my hope that you or one of your experts can shed some light on what I am trying to get Access to do. There are actually two things, but first an explanation of what the database does. A team of translators interpret local Iraqi newscasts which are transcribed and input into the database. These transcriptions are referred back to on a regular basis via requests to my office by the higher-ups. A typical request would be along the lines of "Give me the instances over the past two weeks Prime Minister Maliki has said he likes the U.S." or, "Give me every article referring to IED's exploding in the past month" A simple query of course, returns the date range and all articles whereas the word "Maliki" appears. I am helped by the fact that Maliki does not appear in the dictionary so I can scan through the articles, deleting those that are not relevant. I cannot however discern when IED is actually part of another word. What I would like to accomplish, is highlighting my text query, much like Google does in its cached pages. So, those words that I search for are highlighted, giving me a visual reference. I have tried constructing a macro to do the action and have also searched high and low in the Help files and the Internet.. Perhaps this makes perfect sense to you and you can point me in the right direction. Thank you in advance for your time.
