If someone searched multiple key words like
"Baseball football soccer"
And you are searching on 
'Baseball football soccer%'
The whole string 'baseball football soccer' would
Have to appear the % only implies that any records with 
Baseball football soccer AND THEN SOME, would appear.  
Take Dougs suggestion and use
<CFCOLLECTION>

I new to this list and new to CF. I have a question though. I have a very
small search engine I am trying to create. I am using CF 5 and I am using
Access as the database. I can get it to find the entries, but it only sees
the first keyword and nothing after that. Here is my code see if you can
help me PLEASE! I also need to be able to shoot an error if they enter a
keyword that is not listed. I am completely lost about what I am doing
wrong.

<CFQUERY NAME="search" DATASOURCE="search">
SELECT      ID, title, Description, hyperlink, keywords
FROM         search
WHERE keywords = keywords
<cfif keywords IS NOT "">
AND keywords LIKE '#keywords#%'
<CFELSE>
<h3>You did not enter a keyword!!</h3>
</cfif>

</CFQUERY>
<html>
<head>
        <title>Untitled</title>
</head>

<body>
<cfoutput query="search">
<strong>#search.RecordCount#&nbsp;&nbsp;Results</strong><br><br><br>
<table cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2" border="0">
<tr>
    <td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td>#title#</td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td>#Description#</td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td><a href="#hyperlink#">Test</a></td>
</tr>
</table>

</cfoutput>
