David,

If you've been to a Super Advanced Training class look for a sample labeled 
"Management Tools" and in there look for "Designing Ad Hoc Reports Using Query 
Forms". This might give some clues on what to do with your situation. I've used 
this as a template for many Ad Hoc queries for users with no experience up to 
advanced users.

Give it a try,
Paul Buckley

Subject: [RBASE-L] - User defined search

Using R:Base X latest version.
I'm trying to figure out how to make some sort of user definable search.  My 
thoughts are to have a form with drop downs for the columns I want them to be 
able to search and conditions of the search.  I can make the form and generate 
the search criteria as a variable.  Just cant figure out how to get that to run 
as a search.
Example:
Set var tsearch=.v0&.v1&.v2&.v3&.v4&.v5
Gets me:
Edit using jobdetails where number=45878 as the value for tsearch.
How can I use this variable (tsearch) to actually run?  Or am I totally off 
base and there's a better way to go about this?

Thanks for any ideas.
David Fowler
