In beginning access 7, video 5, at 10 mins, there's a section where the command button wizard is used to select the fields that contain matching data. In Access 2016 that step in the wizard is not present. How do I select the field that contains matching data using the wizard in Access 2016? Many thanks. Really enjoying the courses. Sincerely, Mark in Colorado.
Yep. It's there. You must have missed a step. This wizard hasn't changed since 2007 and is the same in 2019. Try it again. Follow my example exactly. If you don't select the option "find specific data to display" in the previous step, you won't see this.

I bow to your greatness Mr. Rost. Somehow I made a mistake (over and over) and I regret wasting your time. On the other hand, I have accomplished a lot in the short time I've been a member - all thanks to you. Free beer if you come to Colorado Springs. Cheers, Mark
Haha. Don't worry about it. We've all been there. You're learning. That's WHY you're here! Let your example hopefully teach someone else not to make that mistake. But then again, I sometimes INTENTIONALLY make mistakes in my videos just to show you guys what to avoid. I will definitely take you up on that offer for the beer though. I've been to Denver and Breckenridge, but never Colorado Springs. I'm a Florida guy now, though, so definitely not in the winter!
