search feature

1
is it possible to get the search feature to function if an entry matches more than one category?

We built a data base for contacts and many contacts match more than one of our categories. We are finding the search box no longer works once we entered contacts and matched them up to multiple categories.

As an entry person, I am at a loss to finding the solution. Can anyone offer advise?

You're asking about 'your' specific database, yet you share nothing about this particular database. You mention 'Categories' as if you assume we can all understand what you mean within the context of your database and your business / interest that the database supports.

You'll notice most of that is guesswork - but it's only guesswork about what it may be that you wish to ask about. We want to help. At the moment though, that isn't possible.

Please try to express your question in such a way that anyone who isn't in the same room as you, and working on the database with you, could understand. I imagine if you had someone that close to ask you would have done that instead so you can assume anyone who reads this will not be in either category.
