Hello,

I am currently stacked with this issue, I have searched on the community forum and online but I seem not to find a solution. The situation is actually very simple:  
In the app I want to type a word, and consequently retrive the specific image from a list I made in Airtable.

I have integrate with the post from @Mark [on how to retrive images from airtable](http://community.thunkable.com/t/how-to-retrieve-images-with-a-spreadsheet-component/28670)  
But it works for a cell in a specific row. while instead I’d like to search between many.

Here I attache the two tries I made  
Can you comment what I do wrong?

This is one:

Basically what I’d like it do do is so that if I type “dog” I get the picture fo the dog

So far I solved the issue like this.  
To be honest, it works, but is not exactly the best solution or the one I tired to.

The code is:
