URGENT- Help with Java LAPI Search API and Livelink 8.1.5

When I execute a search against Livelink using the Java APIs, the results returned include all versions of a document. Is it possible to set the Search APIs to only return results for the current documents in Livelink.

Thank you. That worked. Do you know what exactly the Livelink Search does when you enter some text in the text box and click the "Search" button?

Is there any way I can figure out what the Livelink Search is doing, or does anyone out there know what it is doing?Thanks in advance.
