Greetings,
MS Access newbie here. Created a table with 7 fields but as it got
more populated, the SEARCH process became slower. I know that indexes
are a solution, so I set one field as INDEXed. I, however, don't know
how to search for a specific record now that I have an INDEXed field.
How can I do it?. What is the most efficient way to do it?
Txs much in advance, sorry about the stupid question! :-(

With most ways, Access automatically uses the index. That is part of
the smarts of the query analyzer, whose job it is to come up with the
fastest way to answer a given question.

Hi Tom,
Txs for your reply!.
I use the "Search" option available through the Edit menu. Assume this
is a sequential search, which becomes slower as the Table grows in
size.
Best,
Randy.

Sorry, it´s not the "Search" option but the "Find" command available
through the EDIT menu. That's what I use to search for info on my
Tables.
