Hello,
Perhaps I am doing something wrong and someone can correct me. With XP we could search the contents of a document for specific word, but Vista search doesn't happen  Can someone explain why? or how to search documents for specific words? May

Hi, May.
What kind of document? (Word? WordPerfect? Notepad?) What extension does it have? (.doc, .docx, .jpg, .txt?) In Control Panel | Indexing Options, we can customize the search in some ways, including to either "Index Properties Only" or "Index Properties and File Contents". How do you have this set? Having said that, I must confess that I haven't yet been able to find the secret to search the contents of my Microsoft Office Publisher's .pub files. :( RC -- R. C.
