I have 5 text boxes linked to fields in an Access database, the table being controlled by a Data control. I'm adding a search facility, and I'm not quite sure how to work the 'FindFirst' property. Syntax should be data.recordset.findfirst(c<wbr />riteria) - but I don't know how to format the criteria. How is it done? Thanks.

Using 'FindFirst' property of Data control

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
