doesn't return results

Hi, I'm trying to setup a search page that returns results on the same page where the search field is. I tried one version first and it kept bringing back all results regardless of the search term. I then edited again using the DataAssist Search tool. Now the page just comes back broken. I was wondering if you could take a peak and let me know where I'm messing up :-)

What's supposed to happen: The user enters a search term and clicks search. 6 db fields are checked for the search term. If the search term shows up in any record in one of the fields, that record (s) should be returned.

I'll attach the file. Please let me know if you need anything else. I'm looking for two answers... first, what's missing or wrong? 2, I'd like to know how to use the tool properly because I need to do this for two more pages and i'd like to use the tool.

Thanks a million

It looks like the trigger you have used for the data Assist search behavior is Recordset rs_careers Is Empty.

You should use the search form as a trigger instead, see the PM

Thanks, I'll look at that.

Improved results but still not great. See comments in PM

Thanks again for the HUGE help!. so sorry... one last question. It's all looking good and I have added my where statement into the careers recordset (WHERE date_archive > CURDATE()) but when I test it, there's an OR between the date query and the webassist query... it should be an AND... how would I change that? Basically I want OR between the field compares AND it must be current (date compare)

Here's what the bit of code you set up for me says (the OR right after CURDATE()):
query: SELECT * FROM careers WHERE date_archive > CURDATE() OR ((category3 LIKE '%Nurse%') OR (competitionno LIKE '%Nurse%') OR (position_summary LIKE '%Nurse%')) ORDER BY category3 ASC

Thanks again

in the Data Assist Search server behavior, set the separator for the first search Criteria to AND.

That did it! Changing the separator to AND resolved the issue. Thanks again for all the help.
