you can write a custome query on model search function…

for e.g




if(isset($this->company_name) && !empty($this->company_name)){

            $criteria = new CDbCriteria;

            $criteria->select = 't.*';

            $criteria->addCondition("company_name LIKE '".$this->company_name."'");

        }
