If I have two fields on screen, surname name and first name respectively, what is the best way to search a table for a match / partial match to the name entered?

i.e. if I enter "Smith" in the surname box, can I pull up the first "Smith" from the DB table?

Any one got any examples of this?

Thanks,
Andy.

If I remember right, the "Addressbook" example has all that set up in it.
