Search has it's moments of slowness. But does work. However, you need to be logged in.

Agreed. Although intermittent it does regularly time out or fail to find threads that do exist. I've successfully done a search this morning - I will keep an eye out to see if the search facility donks out when our cousins across the pond wipe the sleep out of their eyes.

FYI

Using ADO with Access reports

Seriously Dennis - there is a problem with search - the same message keeps coming up from different sources. I know Rudy and I keep jumping on the posts when they appear but we aren't starting these threads
