Based on a previous post, I used [Forms]![Search Form]![MLO #] in my query to
refer to my form and put a command button to run the query.  The MLO # is a
catalog number in the form of ####-####.  I am able to run the query for
exact matches to the entire field but it doesn't work for ranges or matches
to part of the field.  Is there a way to use wild cards on the form?  I've
tried typing an expression on the form as I would on the query, such as

[Forms]![Search Form]![Description] in my search.  For this column we usually
search with * because the search criteria is only part of the field.  In the
form I tried using *criteria* and it didn't return anything.  Also in the
query I tried putting *[Forms]![Search Form]![Description]* and access
changes it to Like "*[Forms]![Search Form]![Description]*".  Thanks for the
help.
