To make that form work, like your scan above, you need a set of inputs 
which corresponds to the scan terms. This is fairly well documented in the 
Interchange Database docs, plus there are numerous search examples abound 
in the demo. You do not even have a single mv_searchspec in your form, so 
you have a bit of work to do.
