Guest Steve Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 I know this a Windows XP section, but I cannot find Vista in htis newsgroup. XP had a great search capability from Start that allowed me to search for specific words in a document, and to do this from from To and From dates. However, Vista has changed the Start search feature, and i do not know how to do a broad search for a document I know has a unique word between specific dates. Can you give me instruction, or know a good article reference with the above example for doing a search on the whole computer? Thanks
