I know there is a way to filter tables without using a query, but I am not sure how to do it. I think it is done placing the SQL code right into the VB code. Any help would be great, or a reference to a helpuful tutorial on this would also be great. THanks!

You can filter a table without using a query if you open up the table and use the menu Records > Filter.

Can you point me towards an example of this, because I am not sure how to do this.

Well, when you have your table open, at the top of your Access window is the title bar, below that are menus. File, Edit, Tools, Help, etc.
You just click that, point the mouse towards filter, and you can choose what kind of filter you want to apply.

I was wanting to know more how to use the VB code of a form to filter the tables. any thoughts on that?
You can use the Form's .Filter property to set up a filter built like the WHERE statement of SQL Code and then set the Form's .FilterOn property to true.
Personally I prefer to use the right-click popup menu to apply a filter on a table or form. The input box will even allow to specify a LIKE with wild characters.

Hello...
Are you using a Recordset? In Vb, I guess you have to store the Data from your database to a recordset object. You can then use the Filter method of recordset object to filter data under given condition. If example you have a recordset named RSTPROFILE, then
RSTPROFILE.Filter = "lastname = '" & txtlastname.text & "'"
to remove the filter just use
RSTPROFILE.Filter = ""
