"Object not supported for this type of object"

You can use SQL
sSQL = "select * from Table where name = 'John'"
open recordset dt using this SQL

and if dt.RecordCount = 0 then ' record is not found

otherwise

sName = dt!Name

Hi, some recordset types do not support the FindXXXX methods.
Try specifying the Recordset to be a Snapshot or Dynaset.
'Replace the dbOpenSnapshot const with dbOpenDynaset as you require
set rsData = db.OpenRecordset(RecordsetSQL , dbOpenSnapshot)


the syntax shown in the previous posting for the find methods is correct.

[bhanuprakash]

write the following code
set rs = db.openrecordset("select * from xyz",dbopendynaset)

then the next find sytax what you have specified is ok this should work.
