It's a bit more code involved.

So it's better you can read these links regarding about asp.net with 3 layered development and look at the code and modify the code to suited to your own code:

Easy ... add a text box and button. On button click, take the text box entries and put them in a vairable. Use that variable in a parameter to call a stored procedure.

Depending on what your searching for, you might want to restrict what the user is using for searching ... ie: use dropdowns, checkboxes and radio buttons. That would be a lot safer and easier then an open ended box.

FYI ... doesnt matter how many layers your app has ... if you have a data layer, just call it and use it. Hardest part is going to be making a search form that guides the user through the process ... and is accessiable!
