I posted to the wrong forum, so now I am posting again here. :)
I need to return a list of records based on finding one or two words in a field containing phrases. I have tried many SQL statements with no luck. I cannot use find and find next, as I need a view of ALL records fitting the criteria.
Does anyone have an SQL statement to accomplish this?
Thanks
Denise
 
Try:

SELECT [Fields]
FROM

WHERE (((
.[Field]) Like "* word *"));
