ok, in excel i know there's a feature called FIND (Main menu ->Edit->find) which helps one locate words/features in the datasheet.
but my question is do we have such in MS Access? the point is that i have to work on a huge database and i contineously add new words there and sometimes i do add an already existing word there which is not acceptable.
or alternatively,how do i check (or control)if a word is already in existance in the database?

Same process. Open the Table. Edit, Find. Or create a query that will search a particular field.

Life's more painless for the brainless.
