I have Six Fields that i want to have on a form for a user to enter in all known fields and return all matches.

I want it to where i can have these fields on a form
FirstName
LastName
BusinessName
PrimSiteNum
Address
City
Once the user has entered all they know i want to hit a button and then at that time run the query in a sub form on the same page returning all matches to the info input.
But if the user does not put in any info in a field i dont want that field searched for.
NEW USER HERE PLEASE HELP AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE

THANKS IN ADVANCE
 
Check out the Filter By Form feature. It's built in to Access, and it will do exactly what you need.

To use this feature, make a form to show all of those fields. Then click on Records|Filter|Filter By Form.

Check it out, it's pretty sweet.
