Search string to Query multiple columns in a table

J

Jeremy

Ok I'm really new to working with SQL and FP 2003. But I have created a table
and have a submission page actively posting data to my database but now I would like to create a search that can find data from any of the columns in my table.

example:

WorkID Name Job

231 John Electrical

I'd like to put just one text box in which a user could type either John/231/or electrical and have it pull up the record from the database. But I am stumped as to how to setup the custom search string. Is this possible? If so could someone give me some suggestions? Let me know. Thanks

some suggestions? Let me know. Thanks

I would suggest you post your question only once. Double-posting tends to
make people less cooperative (bad netiquette). See my answer to your first
post.
