Wild Card

[Gary Gonzales]

I've succeeded in creating an Access dbase and linked it to an InfoPath form.
I don't have a problem submitting data, but then I realized I would need a
way to revised existing records. So I used the query fields and it seems to
work, the problem is I need to type the record (in this case a name field)
exactly as originally submitted otherwise the query fails. Is there a way to
employ a wild card function with InfoPath? I know that Access supports * and
? wildcards but they aren't operating with InfoPath. Ideally I'd like a
pop-up window to present itself and allow the use to narrow it to a single
choice, but I have not idea on how to accomplish this within InforPath.

Thanks for your help!

You'll have to use code to implement your own querying and modify the SQL
statement in the Command property to include wildcards. You should be able to
find many samples online by searching this newsgroup on Command and Query().
