specific query to sort info

Jae Hood

Hi,
I have a table with order details which includes a status field.
I'm wondering how to create a query which i assume would be made into a form
for my end-users which allows them to see all orders under a current status
(ie. open, shipping, delivered, closed)

Thank you!

Use the following criteria for STATUS --
"Open"
- OR -
"Shipping"
- OR -
any of your statuses.

Not sure what property i'm editing.
In my shipment details table, theres a lookup for the status field
"open;shipping;delivered;closed".
Now on my form I thought I would either have to use a query, or some type of
combo box that allows to me select one of those lookup values and output all
orders with that specified status.

Thanks for the help!

Build a query with criteria from a form you build a with a ListBox. Fill
with status. Row source for form is the query.
Criteria --
[Forms]![YourForm]![YourListBox]
