Use of wildcards in table

Asked by cobianna in Access Architecture/Design

Tags: Microsoft, Access, 2003

I have a query that uses wildcards to indentify keywords in a field in the query (see code snippet).  I have run out of space for the IIF statement that I'm using.  I want to make this more dynamic but I'm not sure what is the best way to do this.  I considered putting this information in a table but I'm not sure if this is the best approach.  Help!!!Start Free Trial
