SUMMARY
This article explains the functionality of the Find and Search buttons on a
Form Wizard-generated form to clarify what the search is actually doing.
MORE INFORMATION
When you click the Find button on a Form Wizard-generated form, the Search
dialog box appears so you can select the field and operator, and then
insert a value for the search criteria. If the search criteria produces at
least one matching record, a filter is set to that criteria and the
record(s) available will be limited by that filter.
The availability of the navigational controls Top, Prev, Next, and Bottom
is also affected. If the search criteria produces a single match, these
controls will be disabled. Enabling and disabling of these controls will be
performed depending on the location of the record pointer within the
filter.
To clear the search criteria filter and regain access to all of
the table records, click the Find Button, and then click the All
button in the Search dialog box.
