I have been using the Access databse reasonably successfully for several projects and have been able to manage everything so far ...... Now I've got a question I can't find the answer to!
To cut a long story short I have a project with about 18 fields (columns). Peoples names appear in 12 of these fields. For each record (row) a particular name (say Fred Bloggs) could appear in any ONE field or none of them.
I want Access to list all the records in which Fred Bloggs appears whichever field it might be in.
So far I have tried "Find" but that only finds one at a time and you have to click on to get the next one. I can get it to show all the records where Fred Bloggs appears in (say) field 6, then I can make it show all those in field 7 etc etc.
Is it possible to get a list of all of them at once?????? I'm a real numpty when it comes to queries and such like :(
