I am a beginner, I need to be able to search both parent docs and response docs but return only the parent docs in the search results. I then need to be able to expand the parent doc’s link to reveal the responses for that link. Can this be done? If it can be dome I should be very grateful for help in achieving this end.

Where do you do the search. If it’s in a form, you can display the results in the folder. In the folders PostOpen even, provide a command to collapse all entries. With this you can only see the parent documents in the results. You can expand these documents to see the responses.

Javed, thanks you for your very quick reply. “If it’s in a form, you can display the results in the folder” Sorry to be a nuisance but I don’t understand what you mean, if you have a code snippet I could look at this would be very helpful. My search uses a modified search.htm on the web and returns the values by means of a $$SearchTemplateDefault form, if that helps. I only need to search one database.
