Database Query

[Hum]

Hi i'm trying to create a code that searches for a word i type in, in a table. kind of like a parameter query but in a visual basic code.

if i have the following entries in a column called 'ProductName':
-Poster Paint
-Poster Paper Rolls
-Pink Paper

and i type in the word 'poster' in a textbox, click a command button to search the fields then entries 1 and 2 should be displayed.

what would be the best way or visual basic code to use?

another question, is there a way to look at a select query in visual basic code?

rs.Open "Select * From <TableName> Where ProductName Like '%" & Text1.Text & "%'", con,1,1

Where rs is the recordset, and con is the active connection. BTW, just replace <TableName> with the name of your table.
