How to FIND or SEEK in a database?

[eelsar]

Please Help!

I'm not sure how to find the records for a specific name selected from a combo box?

When I added the names to the combo box I added their primary key as an Index - so when I find it I should search for it by the index that is unique.

Does anyone know some code for how to do this?
Thank you!

Well, a primitive way to search a text file is to :
a) Use ReadLine, to temporarily store a line into
a string variable, then
b) Use InStr(), to search that variable for the desired
substring,
c) Repeat for each string.

It sounds slow and boring, but that's what computers are
good at.
