Error: Syntax error in FROM Clause

Error Type:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E14)
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error in FROM clause.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Yes, I know this question has been answered a million times, however, I've already searched through this forum and my problem still hasn't been resolved.

Basically, I keep getting the error above whenever I try to execute this code. This code is from a search page entitled search.asp.

Here's my code:

<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<% Option Explicit %>
<!--#include file="connect.asp"-->
<%
Dim rsGlobalWeb, strSQL

strSQL = "SELECT * FROM lost LIKE '%" & Request.Form("search") & "%'"

Set rsGlobalWeb = objConn.Execute(strSQL)
%>


Thanks!

You need a WHERE in there somewhere

strSQL = "SELECT * FROM lost WHERE somecolumn LIKE '%" & Request.Form("search") & "%'"

somecolumn must be a text or date column for LIKE to work.

What if I don't have any specific columns that I want to search and I want to search every column?

Never Mind, I figured I really don't need to search every field. Thanks so much! I've been trying to find a solution to this problem for 2 weeks.
