Not quite sure how to get started on this and I have been unsuccessful locating a solution on the board. I am new at Access/VB so bear with me.
This particular DB will resemble a Contacts DB. I am creating a Form that is query driven that the user will use to imput information. I would like to give the User functionality of filtering on fields like First Name, Last Name, Email, etc.... I dont beleive Form Filter will work for me because I would like the filter to update "on the fly". For instance if the user was looking for a person with the last name "Smith" and there were 50 people. I would like the user to then be able to filter on the first name field and ONLY see the first names of the people with the last name of "Smith". I hope this makes sense.
I dont have anything to share with the board (as I have not started as of yet), I am however looking for some suggestions to get started....Or if what I am thinking about is not possible maybe a workaround. Thanks in advance
