Hi,

I have created a survey form that sends its data to a db file. I would like to query the db to retrieve each person's responses to all the questions. A unique ID number  from 12 to 16 digits is assigned to each visitor. I'm having a hard time figuring out how to retrieve the data using the search context. My sense is that something like a sku or ID number that is not random, but consecutive is the way to go.

Is there a way to assign a more searchable ID number? The method I'm using now to generate each ID number is: 

Or perhaps, would it be more efficient to search by date, and bring up all the responses that were received on a given date? If this would be better, please show the code for a search on date? I don't mind leaving the method of assigning unique ID numbers as it is.
