So you always have to plan your database design so that you
can pull out one table to search on.
You can combine a multi-table query in one field, and the scripts I
posted will search in every column.

I should have clarified- with a remote server (ours is in Texas),
hitting the database with every character typed would make the
filtering sluggish.
With a local database, on the users hard drive, it might work fine.

I wish I hadn't sent that email off unclear. Obviously apple's address book
does it that way (first time I realized this and thanks for helping me
realize this) as I was always trying to combine a search across all the
tables in the database the way hypercard does and it looks like that is what

Hey -- thanks for the quick answer. So what you are saying is that using a
direct SQL query of the database is too slow and you have to import the
section of the database that you are going to search on first? I was hoping
for a different answer. Do you think Apple's address book does it that way

I am not the right man to answer this question as, up to now, I never
used any database :-)
I am pretty sure that if you populate the field to be search in (from
a database or any other way) with short lines of text, then the
handlers below are working as expected (a list shows up at each n

Jacqueline, for me, if it were only just this list.
And thank you for the variation, André. I'll put it up beside what
I've got and perhaps nab the best of both.

Hello Gregory,
If I well understand your aim, you could be interested in adapting the
search device I programmed thanks to very good advices from Éric
Chatonnet (as always :-)).
By the way, his tutorial "How to Master Users Data in Entry Boxes"
might interest you; you can find it on his site

How embarrassing. I just read the fine print at the bottom of the
keyDown entry in the Rev dictionary. No excuse for my oversight. I
think I also found the answer to the Delete key issue there too.
