Paste into a field in Find and Replace
In Access 2003, I open the Find and Replace tool and try to paste text into
the "Find What:" field but it won't let me do it. It worked just find in Acces 97 when I right click on the mouse and select paste from the menu. When right clicking in Access 2003 I get "What's this". Also, when I go to the field in the form that I want to seach and then select Find, it automatically fills the "Find What" field of the "Find and Replace" with the current value that is in the field I'm searching on the form. Why would it think I want to look for something I already have in front of me. |
