You are probably running into a problem typical of using data modules with
forms that you have multiple instances of. I don't think its all datasets
going into search mode but your controls are all pointing to the same
dataset.

My rule of thumb is if you are going to have multiple instances of a form
then keep the data access components on the form itself instead of on a
datamodule. There are many people who have little tricks to keep their data
module instances coordinated with their form instances and I suspect you
either need to do that or get rid of them.
