Richard,

    Try this.  When you find the first file with search for first
save the name away in a buffer.  Then when you are ready to search
for next, do a search for first again with the UNambigious filename
you stored away (this will get you back to where you left off).
THEN do your search for next with your ambigious file spec.  Of course
you will need to save any filename found now for the next search for
next.

-Paul
