lookup in new table with a global

Hi,

Well i having a little problem with making a global for this;

I have one new table called Local with fields id,area and place.

I wanna do a search on field place (and a search on "ho" is a place that contains "ho", so houston if a vallid place)

if results = 0 return page "place not found, how sad".
if results = 1 return page "place found display a area page".
if results > 1 return page "all place's on one page to select one place".

I quess u have to make a array (fetch it) and a result counter ....

Hope someone can help me on the way...

Allready thanks.

Regards Startpoint...

BTW: i used other field names and a table name so u understand it better:)
