Querying Access

W

W M

Forgive the incredible newbieness of this question:

Is it possible to open a database, have a form pop up that allows a user to type a last name, press a "find" button and be presented with fields such as full name, address, etc. from a particular record in a query. I hope I am explaining it well enough to be understood.

I want a form that would do essentially the same function of filtering a query to a specific last name. I also want the form to be immediately open when the database is open and for the user to have a field on this form in which they can type a last name and click a "find" button. I won't ask anyone to walk me through all this step by step, but I would like to know, first if it is possible, what I am wanting, and second if anyone knows of a resource which will help me learn how to do it.

Thank you in advance,
Wendy
