Filter code not working

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi

I am using this code to filter my form:
Dim strr As String
strr = Me.txtSearch

Me.FilterOn = True
Me.Filter = _
"[Library] like '*" & strr & "*'" _
& " or [Instrument] like '*" & strr & "*'" _
& " or [Location] like '*" & strr & "*'" _
& " or [Description] like '*" & strr & "*'" _
& " or [Comment] like '*" & strr & "*'"

The code works for all fields except the location field. All the fields are
text fields.
I tested the filtering of the Location field by entering various simple
words into the Location field for various records and when I type one of the
those words into Me.txtSearch and execute the code, those records are not
returned. All the other fields are working properly with this code.

Can any tell me why the Location field is not included in the filtered
results.


Thanks
