RE Query forms

[Raposa Velha]

Olá Luisa ;-)

If I understood correctly, you would like to display the results of a
query in a form. No problem, just go to the "Create form by using
wizard" and at the first step just choose the query you want.

Xau!

Dear colleagues:

I read somewhere that you could obtain the results of a query as a
form.

I have design a database for my books and waht I would like is to
obtain the
results of my queries (which use parameters for language, author,
genre,
etc) in the form of a bunch of the original forms I used for creating
the
book entries.

I don't know if I explained the problem correctly. As a result of a
query I
would obtain a selecction of the forms that comply with the query
criteria.

My queries work beautifully but I am not happy with getting a table
with the
results.

If this cannot be done in Access but needs Visual Basic or Visual
Basic.NET
it will be okay, since I have both programs and I have a little
knowledge of
them. However, at this stage, I would prefer a pure Access (with SQL)
approach.

Thanks in advance.

I tried this but it didn't work the way I envisioned. It gives me the
results but in one form only. What I would want the query to do would be to
pick all the forms that in one of the fields contain the criteria for the
query. Sort of like picking index cards from a box... It would be much more
convenient.

Thanks.
