| | Windows 7 beta: unable to get library search to work? Greetings, I'm gonna post this here because there is no Win7 usenet group (yet). Plain and simple: library search doesn't work for me at all. I've done the steps exactly to the tutorial: add ONE folder with subfolders (and I kept it to one tree for now) Then I tried searching, even for most primitive combinations like c*.* or c* but absolutely no search results. Does library search happen to be still broken in current public beta? (7000) -Andreas |

I refuse to do that because due to the "Let's imitate DTP as closely as possible" nature of www forums, these have always been slow as a snail. That's just why I prefer usenet forums. And if microsoft.* tree does not want to provide a usenet group--well, no problem, so I'll just find one elsewhere. -Andreas |

However, since MS doesn't provide a public newsgroup for the Win7 beta there you go. Maybe there is a public non-MS newsgroup that will meet your needs. I haven't looked so can't provide the information for you. Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic! http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/#FAQ |
