Capturing search criteria in Find mode

Hi,

Would anyone know how to capture find criteria for a Number or Date type field when >, <, <>, etc. operators are

used.

My users want to see search criteria before they perform a search, and want to be able to print them for future

references.

I created a gSearchCriteria global field, which is populated by a script which is looping through all filelds on a

layout (they are in a FIND mode). If Status(CurrentFieldContent) is not empty, it appends

Status(CurrentFieldName)

and Status(CurrentFieldContents) to a gSearchCriteria global field.

It works fine except when the Field Type is Date or Number, and they enter ">", "<", or other other logical

operators. In this case CurrentFieldName is captured, but it appears that CurrentFieldContents

is empty. I tried Set Field, Insert Calculated Results, Copy / Paste from the current field to the Search Criteria

global.

Is there a way to capture the data?

Thanks
