    I have Form A linked to Form B. From Form B can I use the search function to find records? I don’t think I can.

    You can search from within the list of linked records from within a specific parent record. And also if you’re using a many-to-many link type you can search for the linked records that you want to add to the parent record.

    Do you mean when you tap into the search field on the list of linked records and type in “cable”, the list just doesn’t filter?
