    Hi, welcome to the forum

    You need to change your titel to something that actually describes your problem. Thing is, Im not really sure what you want, so I cant even suggest anything to you

    Could you walk me through (in simple terms) what you are doing, and what you want to achieve?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Regards

    Thanks for the title change

    That sounds do-able. Have you started putting anything together for this yet?

    Hi,

    It looks like you want to create a search database but one that updates itself. It looks like you may need to design a VBA Macro code in order to do this.

    What the Macro will do is search through your records to see if there's any matches, then check for the latest date and time. If there are no results then a message will come up saying "No result found"

    I would suggest to first create the table you're looking to search in and fill it in with some values so we have an idea of what we are working with.
