you need to open the database with a specific cursor type that supports findfirst - like snapshot I think - see help on the opendatabase function

Hi

you want search the name = "Jhon"

Set db = DAO.Workspaces(0).OpenDatabas ("rem.mdb", False, False, ";pwd=urs")
' OpenRecordset (put the table name in)
Set dt = db.OpenRecordset("Name")

While Not dt.EOF And dt.Fields!Name <> "Jhon"
dt.MoveNext
Wend

dt!Name ' is "Jhon"
