Hi,
The task I am working on is fairly simple yet I just cant seem to get the
thing to work.
I have an Access Dbase that stores news articles in it.
Fields are:
ID
Date
Top Story
Department
Category
Article
I would like to a have:
1.) a search page that has ONLY the search feature on it
2.) the search results returned to a results page
3.) the display page so when the article is selected it displays
4.) a maintenance page where new articles are feed into the dbase
I have tried for several days to accomplish this and although I get close
using the wizards I cannot get the search feature and the results grid on
seperate pages. If I do it manually I have to develop it backwards in the
sense I have to have a results grid built before the search feature because
it requires a page to feed the resulst to.
Anyway, if anyone has some ideas, I'm sure its something I'm not doing
correctly.
Thanks,
JCrowe

seems easiest way, should take a few seconds, seems to me the wizard makes exactly what you need but not the search on its own page.
So, Make it all with the wizards so its all working but with the search on the same page
then highlight the main page with search in the list, and right click and select make similar page
then highlight and remove the search from one, and the form from the other, and change a few links
