sl:=TStringList.Create;
// put a search condition to TIB_Edit control in Form1
sl.add(Format('CTL.Form1.IB_Edit1=%s',["SearchMe"]));
// put a search condition to 2. TIB_Edit control of IB_SearchPanel1
sl.add('CTL.IB_SearchPanel1.edIB_SearchPanel1_1='+'MeToo');
ib_query1.ReadSearch(sl);
ib_query1.Search;
ib_query1.Post;
ib_query1.InvalidateSQL;
ib_query1.Refresh;
sl.free;

To be sure just look at Tib_query.WriteSearch() at runtime.

HTH.
