Windows Vista Search

I am use to Windows searching for text within a document but can't see how to do it in Vista.

I am sure I'll look stupid when you tell me but can anyone help on this? Thanks.

I don't have the answer to your problem.

FYI: you have posted this in the "XP" forum. You would probably get a better response in the "Vista" forum. Perhaps a Mod could move it for you...send a PM.

Vista's build in HELP File has tons of info. But, in short - Vista doesn't do searches within files like XP did. You however can add some info like "tags" or authoy to many but not all files.
