sounds like you already found a good way to do it. The only other way that
might make more slightly more sense (but will take up more space in the DB)
is to create a struct and use WDDX to store it in the DB. Using a struct
you can associate a search value with a specific field name. Keep in mind
though that using WDDX takes up a LOT of space (relatively speaking of
course).

Subject: Suggestions on saving a search
oi CF-Talk,!!
I am curious if anyone has any forms that they allow the user to save their
search criteria, so that
they can go back at a later time to it.....and resubmit it. or edit
it....etc?
any suggestions as to how to go about this?
Currently, I loop all the form. variables into a list..... then plug it
into the db. And on them
selecting a saved search i loop thru the list and populate
variables/textboxes. Was just looking for
a better way.
