It's not too hard to change them so that the expression built by searchclass goes into a LOCATE FOR instead of a SET FILTER TO. Then I took out the All button and replaced the Print button on the txtbtns button bar class a SearchNext button which has IF FOUND()...CONTINUE...ENDIF. The only disadvantage is that you can't Search Previous.

I remember now. I had a filter on a form property which was going out of scope in the searchclass. I think that the "All" button SET FILTER TO, not remembering your old filter, either. I didn't like the way it worked anyway.
