I put my table on top and the potential user action buttons at the bottom as per this thread I don't know if it really matters either way, top or bottom. However, I would probably try to keep the user action buttons either at the top or bottom rather than split.

I don't think the combo boxes are required. However, I did them as it made a lot of the search stuff very easy and seemed like it would be a good fit since the users would only be doing searches that would most likely pull up data (i.e. I say most likely because if another thread deletes a record, a search on a name that existed before may come up empty). Lots of posts out here regarding combo boxes and probably lots of different opinions.
Gui experts out there - other ideas???

So, is this what you had in mind? The user selects a value from a
ComboBox such as "Name", "Address", "Zip", and that specifies
which database record's field will be searched. Then in a separate,
but related text field, the user types in the search, such as
"Zip" from combo box, then "88" for first two digits of zip?

But what I really want to know is how to sort out my layout problems.
