Overview
The AdHoc Queries feature is located on the Advanced Tab in the forms manager. All users have access to it.
An ad hoc query will pull a list of forms based on criteria specified by the query creator. Nearly every field on a form may be queried.
The results come up in a report format that may be printed or may be exported to Excel, CSV, or PDF.
If you want your results to show in the Forms Manager instead of the report format, the Advanced Search should be used.
