I work for a small company and we need to make a searchable Access database.
I have the database setup, however; I am having trouble making it searchable.
 
All databases are 'searchable'. You would use a query or even the "find"
feature. What specifically are you trying to do?

searchable.
 
That's a little vague, you know? I could say to you that you can stop
worrying, you don't have to do anything to make your database 'searchable',
because every Access database is automatically 'searchable' - just press
Ctrl+F - and technically that would be a correct answer. But maybe it
wouldn't be a very helpful answer, maybe your reaction would be: "But that's
not what I mean by 'searchable'." Great! We're making progress - now tell us
what you *do* mean by 'searchable', and we might make even more progress!
