I am still considered a newbie - for about 8 years now.
I would build the form through wizard.

Modify it
  by added a property to the form called - say vSearchvalue
     so you can call it in methods by thisform.vSearchvalue
  then added the textbox 
   in the valid code of the textbox, set a variable to the value of the textbox, 
      then do a locate on the table for that value 
            - I have my stuff set up for one textbox for one field, 
                not sure how to do multiple fields for one textbox.
  remember to do a thisform.refresh after the locate.

That should do it. Hope map is good enough. ;-)
