Thanks guys. now that it is working, I wanted to get an idea if this were the 
'best' way to accomplish my end.

I am presenting a table with things and I wanted to give some minor search 
capability. My user will bring in the AMD and search for a publication (String) 
or a Center (String). I am creating the EOQualifier in the AMD and passing it 
back to Main with:

theSearchQualifier = ERXQ.and(theSearchQualifier, 
Grid.PUBLICATION.contains(thePubToSearch()));

((Main)context().page()).setSearchQualifier(theSearchQualifier);
AjaxModalDialog.close(context());
return null;

I then fire the onClose action method of the AMD and update my AUC with the 
table.

Ok, it works. but Stefan makes a comment:

I don't understand this method. I am very interested in learning more.
