i have a form with a list of customers
for finding a name on the list user write's the name in a text box
the code i'm using is:
Private Sub TextBox_KeyUp(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
Recalc
Screen.ActiveControl.OnKeyUp = ""
SendKeys "{F2}", True 'Press F2 (Goto end of text line)
TextBox.OnKeyUp = "[Event Procedure]" 'Restore Event
'
Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst "left([CustomerName]," & Len(TextBox) & ")
= '" & Me!TextBox & "'"
Me.Bookmark = Me.RecordsetClone.Bookmark
End Sub
while user write's the last name it's working ok
but when entering space between last name and first name, space disapears
and name can't be found
have an idea?
thanks

Afraid I don't know the answer to your query, but I thought I would point
out another possible problem. What if the persons surname is something
like O'Shea.
Try the following code, should correct your problem and make sure names
with apostrophes don't mess you about:
***CODE BEGINS***
Dim strSQL as string
strSQL = "CustomerName LIKE " & chr(34) & Me.TextBox & chr(34)
Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst strSQL
***CODE ENDS***
UNTESTED, but I think it should work
Cheers

oops, slight correction:
***CODE BEGINS***
Dim strSQL as string
strSQL = "CustomerName LIKE " & chr(34) & Me.TextBox & "*" & chr(34)
Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst strSQL
***CODE ENDS***
