Require help with Microsoft Access...urgently!

OK...I'm at work at the moment, my boss is at a meeting, and has left me to draw up a list of people from an old datebase. I've tried the 'help' section, but it's no help.
What I need to do is search every field in the database, and find everyone related to a certain person (basically everyone where it says 'c/o Annette Cox' somewhere in their entry). Any idea how I'd go about this?

Still need help? Right click on the field and add the info into the "filter for" box. Hit enter

Cheers dude. That's what I ended up doing in the end after about 20 minutes of trial and error.

Nothing like a bit of stress in the first week, eh?

I hate MS Access! It's pretty close to the worst database program I've ever used.
