Thanks for the advice Jason, I have several CMS areas I would like to use on each page for page specific banner rotation etc and have therefore had to come up with a solution

First I saved the results page as a template to base the pages on, I then cleared out all other html from the page leaving just the results repeat selection and results navigation, I then I deleted the search recordset from the results page, and cleared the assocated values from the repeat selection, I then had to amend the WADAproducts RS using the WHERE clause

SELECT ProductID, ProductSKU, ProductName, ProductPrice, ProductWeight, ProductCartDesc, ProductShortDesc, ProductLongDesc, ProductThumb, ProductThumb_1, ProductThumb_2, ProductThumb_3, ProductThumb_4, ProductThumb_5, ProductImage, ProductImage_1, ProductImage_2, ProductImage_3, ProductImage_4, ProductImage_5, ProductCategoryID, ProductUpdateDate, ProductStock, ProductLive, ProductUnlimited, ProductLocation, ProductCare
FROM products
WHERE products.ProductCategoryID='401'

Added the values from the WADAproducts to the associated feilds in the repeat selection, added some nice css and saved the page. I then opened up PowerCMS and included the page as an iframe I also had to change the results navigation links to target_top.

This method works allowing me to maintain my other cms regions.
