1. Base your Form on a Query and set the ordering in the Query.

2. Use the Form OrderBy Property to set the ordering in the Form.

3. Use the Find command in the Menu.

4. Use the ComboBox Wizard to create a ComboBox so that you can select a
name and the code created by the Wizard will make the relevant Record the
Current Record on your Form.

Take your pick(s).
