Searching multiple fields & only 1 has to match

I apologize if this has been covered somewhere. (still looking) I need to do a search on multiple fields but only 1 of those fields has to match. In other words I have a setup of 8 slots for a payment history and payment date and I need to be able to search for any payments made within a range or specific date in any one or more of those slots.

I know you are wondering why are they not in a seperate table with each payment being a seperate record. There is a reason for this that is too complicated to explain. Other aspects of the database are in seperate tables but not this.

Actually just found the solution but if anyone has any other suggestions please post.

I found this solution from another post...

Enter find mode (if not already)

Set Field:A = Temp1

New Record/Request

Set Field:B = Temp1

New Record/Request

Set Field:C = Temp1

New Record/Request

Set Field:D = Temp1

etc etc.....

perform find
