ABSTRACT:
A method and system for enabling a user to search stored information by providing a user with a printed search request form. The search request form includes information relating to a search request and coded data. The coded data indicates to a sensing device information relating to an identity of the search request form, of at least one reference point of the search request form and/or at least one parameter of the search request. The sensing device communicates indicating data to a computer system based on the sensed coded data. The computer system is able to identify form this indicating data the identity of the search request form, movement of the sensing device as it relates to the parameters of the search request form and/or a search request.
