> PS. I know it sounds a bit useless saving search criteria, but trust me
it does make sense in this application.

Makes complete sense to me.  I wish more systems let me save my search
criteria (Google should remember my searches - it's like bookmarking URL's
;) ).

But it really comes down to what you are saving and how they can "run it
all at once".  I can see why structAppend may not work (because there may
be duplicate fields if they all came from the same form originally).

Do you mean you want them to run all the queries and get the results back
as one composite result ?

If so, consider creating each of the query strings (for each of their
saved criteria) separately (assuming the same fields and the same
datasource tables) and then concatenating the queries in a UNION.  Your
problem here is going to be disparate ORDER BY clauses (as a UNION must
have only one ORDER BY).

The other way would be to execute all the queries separately and make a
single QofQ that held all the results (and you can then mix and match
fields from disparate queries).  Each of the queries could then have it's
own ORDER BY clause and you could create a "psuedo" ORDER BY to ensure the
results came back in the correct groups (ie. the order in which the
queries were executed and then - within that - the order by for each of
the separate queries).

How does all that sound ?
