Creating Data Access Page with ability to search

R

Ruben Torrez

I am creating a fairly simple database to keep track of written reports and
supporting documents that are stored on a network drive. I have created a
table that has multiple columns for information including: ID, Title, Date
Date Created, Description , Report Number, Author, Notes, and a link to the
folder containing all related documents.

My objective is to create an access page where users on the network can
search this database with keywords (that would be found in the title or
description) or with a report number.

Ideally, the input would be 1 or more keywords or 1 report number and the
output would be a list of all the reports that contain those keywords with
all of this other information displayed under each report. (*I do not need
the full-text of the documents searched)

I am not very familiar with Access and so don't know too much about coding,
but can someone help me figure out how to create this?

Thank you,

Ruben
