InfoPath Dev

Afternoon guys, Over the past few months I have gradually began to work on a Help Desk logging tool for me team. I have now got it completed but one issue I can't get my head round is searching previous forms.

That is perfect! Thanks a lot for all of your help over the past couple of threads.

Guys, I have been working on a logging tool as seen below. I have just uncountered a problem that I didn't think of.
