Hi,

Try this

"Select * from livros where autor like ""*" & request.Form("texto") & "*"""

Access uses double quotes instead of single quotes. Also, the positioning of the wildcard character should be ok at the end. Another suggestion is to change both sides of the comparison to upper case (just another precaution).
