I've just started using Access Database and my boss says it needs a search on it. He only needs one criteria to search for a serial number. he wants to input a serial number and find out which order it goes to. I'm not to good at VB so explain carefully. Thanks
 
you don't need VBA

Open the database and click the queries TAB
then Add your table
Next add the fields you want to see
In the Criteria for the serial number field
Put this
[Enter Serial Number]

Then run the query (click the Red Exclamtion mark)

Save the query.
next make a macro which opens the query

Serial Number is in a different table "Order Details" while the info i want to see is in the "Order" table, so it doesn't work.. suggestions?
