step back through 'Find Next' records
Hi
I have a set of membership records which have data input via a simple form. When looking for a particular record I use the standard CTRL+F on the whole record set from the Form view, and move through the results using the Find Next button. Is there a way to move back through the records when I have got to the end of the results. eg. there may be numerous members with a surname Smith and I can move through the Smith records by using Find and Find Next but if I have moved past the record that I want is there a way of stepping back through the records to a previous Find Next record? Apologies if this is a really obvious question -- Message posted via http://www.accessmonster.com |

Apologies if this is a really obvious question I never really looked at that, but I don't think there is, using the Find dialog. You could filter the form instead, and then just page forward and backward through the filtered records. -- Dirk Goldgar, MS Access MVP www.datagnostics.com (please reply to the newsgroup) |

There is a drop down box labeled Search and you can change it to Up,
Down, or All. If you go past the record, you could change it to Up to go back up. Hope that helps! |
