Good morning Brett
Here is a link which I think will help you as you are starting out on the path to solving cryptic crosswords.
Read through a few times and I am sure you will soon get the hang of it. Also, keep looking at the questions and answers on this site to see how solutions are parsed. Good luck.

Also, when asking for help when you have a few letters, it is easier for us to read if you set it out as follows::

Forced to go round circle before French search (6)

?O?G?E

The clue should have read:

Force to go round circle before THE French search(6)
as "the" is important in solving the answer !

One more thing:
It is not good etiquette to ask for all answers to a particular crossword. Ask for a few to get you started then try and fill in some gaps yourself. Also see my posts 15,16,17
