I have a Book Database with one field named Titles.
Is it possible to make a query using 2 partial names in the field name to
get all the matching items I want in one query?
For example, *Gone* (Gone Fishing, Gone with the Wind, Gone Crazy, etc) and
*Parenting*(for Modern Day Parenting, Good Parenting Skills, Parenting a
Teenager, etc), so I get all 6 Book Titles ?
I tried Like "*" Or [Enter Partial Title of Book] & "*" but it returns
the entire database's Book Titles. Help.

To find the phrase anywhere in the field:
Like "*" & [Enter Partial Title of Book] & "*"

To find the phrase only at the beginning of the field:
Like [Enter Partial Title of Book] & "*"

To find the phrase only at the end of the field:
Like "*" & [Enter Partial Title of Book]
