InfoPath Dev

 Hi ! My form is not linked to an Access Database, which would be THE BEST but I have no idea how to create this so I'm using what I have and kind of know.

So since I will be using the form to archive events, I want to be able to search keywords in the folder where the forms will be stored to find what I'm looking for.

For example, I want the form to give me many possibilities of kinds of events that may happen in the same form (let's say rain, snow and wind). I want to give many choices to the user so something like snow, rain, sun, wind, blizzard, storm, etc. I want him the pick the ones he wants. 

Then when I type in the folder search bar where the forms are stored something like 'rain', I want all the rain events to appear.

I tried it with text fields and it works but I don't want them to type it.

I tried it with the menu selection and it works but you can only choose one option, which is not what I'm looking for.

I tried the Check boxes but it seems to not work.

 I would like it to work with the facultative section because that's what my form contains right now but I can't make it work.

I want my form to be as simple as possible so that the user will do it super fast.

 Help !

Thank you in advance

 I'm having trouble understanding the question - I'm sorry. Can you maybe attach some screenshots under the Options tab in a reply? You are searching a form library from within an InfoPath form - is that correct? You may want to look into using REST to query, then you have a greater flexibility for finding items that contain a value....

So the filled forms will by in a folder X.

I want each of these forms to be meterological events such as rain, snow, blizzard, etc.

I want to be able to go in the folder X (on Windows) and to search rain + snow and have all the forms that contain both these instances.

I don't want the user to write rain, I want him to check/select it.

I have facultative sections (rain, hail, snow, etc.) and I would like that when we click on them, it activates the keyword of what they are (like rain, snow...). I don't think that's possible with InfoPath but maybe! I lose nothing to try! The picture attached shows in red the facultative sections.

 

If you mean that in an InfoPath form, you want the user to be able to search the folder where you have your filled out XML, you'll need to add code to your form for that.

 Not in an InfoPath form, I want the user to be able to search the folder where the filled forms are stored.

I want the user to be able to type 'rain' in the computer's search bar so that all the forms that have been filled in the rain section will show up.
