Searching using a subform

[Jeannie]

I have a parent form that has contact information like
name, phone number ect...I search the parent form by
placing the cursor in the field that I want to search by
and clicking the search button. I have a subform
connected to the main form that has additional contact
information like langues spoken, medical alerts ect...

The problem is, I cannot search using the subform fields.
If for example, I wanted to find a contact that spoke
Chinese I would like to place my cursor in that field,
click the search button,put chinese in the search criteria
to return the contacts.

How can I do this?

Jeannie,

To the best of my knowledge you cannot search on the subform fields. They
only "see" the data that is tied to the main form.

If you find a solution for this please let me know.
