I would like to search the same field in every record in teh database to make
sure it is not blank.

You could create a query showing all the records.
As criteria for the field you wish to check use:
Is Null

Only the Null records will be returned.

You could also use your Form's 'Filter by Form' or 'Filter by
Selection' tool button to filter for all the Null records.
 
Hi Siggie,

Use a select query with a criterion of
Is Null
on the field in question.

The SQL view of the query will look like this:

SELECT * FROM MyTable
WHERE (MyTable.MyField IS NULL);
