copy & paste the next function to your application
use it al followed:

Dim SQL$
Dim rs as recordset
Dim db as database

Set db = OpenDatabase(yourdatabase)
SQL$ = "SELECT * FROM " & yourdatabase
SQL$ = SQL$ & MakeSQLString(Text1.text,"title")
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(SQL$)

In the Textbox you can put your searchwords. If you want to use AND / OR (or anything 
else that you like but don't forget to specify it in the code!) If you put just words 
without a separator than the AND is used.
