Default Search for Record in Form, Report

I would like the capability of searching the table or query on which my forms
and reports are based, to select a certain record in the source.

It sounds like it's a pretty sophisticated thing to do. Is there a way I
can do this? Preferably "on the way into" the form or report, now while I'm
in it.

Don.

That is pretty basic, not sophisticated at all. In fact, you can do it via
Access's own toolbar, click Edit then Find.
You can also code your own Find function and in that case it could get quite
complex depending on what you want to do.
