Display Search Criteria on Results page

I am sorry, I will supply some more info...
I have created a image retrieval system for an archival construction drawing database. Querying the database to retrieve our scanned plans from a generic location. I am using a flash format form titled "search.cfm", this form has 4 text inputs and one select option. When "search.cfm" is submitted, it opens a result page which displays all of the records that meet the query, grouped by 3 fields. I then select a group to see another results page which has thumbnails of our const4ruction plans and image data for the group. I then select a submit button to view the individual image.
I would like to be able to forward the initial inputted query criteria through each results page.
I hope that this makes it clearer, thank you for your quick response.

at this point, you have the form fields available, so display them

this actually is a different query, and when you "select a group" you would want to pass those criteria
you could use hidden form fields if you still want to carry over the values from the first form

Got it! Thank you for your help, it works like a charm.
This is the code that I used to get it to work...
<cfform preservedata="yes" value="searchcriteria">
<cfinput type="text" name="project_name" value="#DPWProjectPlan_Search.project_name#"> </cfform>
