Tal -

This is from the 3.1x docs (you didn't mention what mvend version you are 
using):

-------

mv_search_file
      In the text search, set this variable to the file(s) to be scanned 
for a match. The default,
      if not set, is to scan the products.asc file. If set multiple times 
in a form (for
         a text search), will cause a search all the files. One file name 
per instance.

      In the Glimpse search, follows the Glimpse wildcard-based file name 
matching scheme. Use
      with caution and a liberal dose of the Glimpse man page.

---------

So my understanding is that, within your search form:

...
<input type=hidden name=mv_search_file value="File_1">
<input type=hidden name=mv_search_file value="File_2">
<input type=hidden name=mv_search_file value="File_3">
...

I have not tried it myself.  Let us know if it works!
