Chris,
This isn't what you want to hear, but really your database design
needs changing so that each keyword is in a separate row.
If that's not an option, you could read the list of keywords
and do a ListFindNoCase() on it. That will be incredibly slow though,
if you do it for every entry in a large database.

Subject: Looping through lists
Greetings,
Am constructing a db search using (among other things) a form text area for
keywords. In the data base there is a KeyWords field which contains a
comma delimited list of keywords for each entry.
I have a query which loops over the form text box entries. How do I then
loop over the database keyword fields to check for a match? I am a little
stuck. Any suggestions, code snippets, links to sites would be greatly
appreciated.
TIA,
Chris
