Goto nearest.

I have an access datatable in VS 2008
Dropped it on the form etc and have all the Adaptors etc.

I want to give the user the option to search the database and go to the nearest record for example by surname.

However I just want to search the table for the nearest match and position the cursor at that point in the datagrid. I do not want to do a select staement and return only those records that match the search query.

Delphi has a SETKEY and GotoNearest function. I am looking for something similar.

Help and advice would be very much appreciated.
