I can read data, but i dont want to write query textbox to all SQL Commands. User will write only for example CARL , and background query will sort in TEL column and will get the all CARL s TEL number. And sorry i dont know Spreadsheets component.. really sorry. I will try with your solution. Thanks a lot ABG.
