ADO Find Method

Complete Recordset Object Reference

The Find method searches for a record in a Recordset that satisfies a specified criteria. If the search is successful, the record pointer will point to the first found record.

Note: A current row position (like MoveFirst) must be set before calling this method, otherwise an error will occur.

Syntax

objRecordset.Find(criteria,skiprows,direction,start)

Parameter	Description
criteria	Required. The column name, comparison operator, and value to use in the search. Examples: "Country='Norway'" "Date>#7/22/97#" "Country LIKE N" Note:* This method does not support multi-column searches (AND or OR)
skiprows	Optional. Specifies how many records beyond the current record to skip before beginning the search. Default is 0
direction	Optional. A SearchDirectionEnum value that specifies the search direction
start	Optional. The starting position for the search

SearchDirectionEnum Values

Constant	Value	Description
adSearchBackward	-1	Searches backward from the starting position. Stops at the beginning of the Recordset. If no match, the record pointer is placed at the beginning of the Recordset
adSearchForward	1	Searches forward from the starting position. Stops at the end of the Recordset. If no match, the record pointer is placed at the end of the Recordset
