You can create an unbound field on a form then query. In the query criteria line of the field (where "tree" would be located) you would need to refer to the unbound field in this way:
Like "*"&Forms![frmInput]![UnboundFieldName]&"*"
This will return any record with Tree in that field.

How do I create a search engine of some kind for my database? (without having to setup a new query everytime)
I have a database which contains a library of topics and related notes associated with books, movies, internet, etc.
What I want to be able to do is search the database TOPICS field through some type of search engine to find all the resources that cover a particular Topic in my database and where they can be found.
For example, if I want to find all the resources I have assoicated with TREES, I want to either be able to type in the word "trees" or maybe even use a drop down list and select trees and a page comes up with all the resouces associated with trees.
Thanks for any help or suggestion
