Lee,

just use the Search Mode of TIB_Query, this does all for you automaticly.
Use IB_SearchBar to enter the SearchMode, or just call IB_Query.Search .
Enter your search criteria in your IB_Edit and use IB_SearchBar to start search
or just call IB_Query.Post . That´s all you need to do !

More help needed ?
