I have a table with 8 columns and about 5,000 rows. I need some method by which to search column 1 for a specific date (the column is unique, only one date will exist). Once the search finds that date, I need to store the information in the remaining 7 columns in that row. I know I can accomplish this in Excel with a For/Next loop and the .Cells method, but how do I do this in Access??

:oops:
 

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
Is this 'table' an Access table?

And what do you mean by 'store the information'?

You could use a query to pull the data you want from a table by setting the criteria for the 'date' field to the date you want.

Perhaps you can explain further what you're setup is?

Yes, this is an access table. When I say store the information, I want to report the information on the row in a report.
