Help a beginner please

[Jim]

Hi, One of my clients has a database on Access 2000 for
his cleaning clients. When the 'search' button is pushed
it returns "....the button the macro is attempting to
search cannot be searched, try one of following: Add a go
to control action before the findrecord, for the
findrecord action change the only current field arguement
from yes to no, change the focus to a searchable control"

I realise this seems a pretty basic question, as in it
relates to a error on our behalf, not the programs. So if
anyone can point us in the direction to fix this problem,
or where there are online tutorials on doing it correctly.

Much appreciated in advance
Jim

Can you paste the code from the event procedure here? Your error almost
surely is in the code...

To get to the code: Open the offending form in Design View, double-click on
the Search Button. You should get a properties dialog box. Click the Event
tab at the top and then find On Click. Click the ellipses (...) button to
see the code that fires when the search button is clicked.
