searching through forums

Topic

New Reply

How do I search the forum to see if a question like mine has already been asked/answered? I went Search Forums (advance search), but it doesn’t allow me to specify which forum I would like to search in. Also, when I typed in “keywords” “tags”, I received a message that no results matched my criteria. But I’m almost positive that there should be one question regarding “Count”…so to say that nothing matched is telling me that I’m not searching correctly.

More specifically to this question, I would like to search topics regarding Access Queries and advance count functions. Thank you!

In the Advanced search Search Filters section, click the drop-down arrow in Forums. Then click “Selected Forums”. That will open another section with the forums to select.

It does; if you change Search Filter “Forums” from “All available Forums” to “Selected Forums” you then get a drop-down menu of every forum to select one (or more if you Ctrl-click).

I just found 944 results using tag “Count”, including your last post as the first result.

Searching for keyword “Count” (with quotes, otherwise it finds account) in just the “MS Access and database help” forum produces 23 results.
