My Documents

Whenever I create a file from notepad the My Documents" file is brought up for the naming process.

Is there a way to search through the "My Documents" file at that point?

Is there a search feature that you can use browse to get to the folder you want to search?

Thanks

Mike

Actually I want to search to see which folders in "My Documents" contained a specific word such as "DVD."

Thanks

Mike

On the left is a My Recent Documents icon click it. Then right click the folder, My Documents, you want to search and the standard list of options for a file is displayed. You can choose SEARCH.
