Hi!

I found this set of code to update an Access database using a Word form. It's for a school project where we HAVE to use nothing but Office to create a website, so...I know...

Anyways, the original code is set to two buttons.
- CommandButton1: Checks the form fields against what is in the database to make sure there are no duplicates

- CommandButton2: If there are no duplicates, the user clicks this button to add their info to the database.

NEED: I'd like to combine the two.
- It needs to see if in database (verifying with email later on)
- If so, give a simple message "Already On File"
- If not, proceed to add the form fields
- I'd also like to CLEAR the form fields on either of the above once verified and they are on the list, or after they sign up.
- I'm also only using 2 fields ("FullName and Email"). Don't need all the other stuff or the Auto-Fill portion (part of something else in the tutorial).

Thank you!!!
