Thanks Carey

I was hoping for a more definitive "how to" but I guess that will have to
do.

Coding Horror: Exploring Vista's Advanced Search
http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000731.html

In my hands, on my Vista Ultimate machine that is over a year old, Vista
Search for strings in files often fails -- in fact Vista's search fails for
me more often than it works. I can get search to work in Windows 95, 98,
2000, and XP, but without a 3rd party tool I am not smart enough to find
files with specified strings in Vista. I have found that Agent Ransack,
http://www.mythicsoft.com/agentransack/, works well to find files in Vista
that I cannot find with Vista's search.

For quite some time I have pressed Microsoft for a solution to Vista's
search problem. I would downgrade back to XP because of the Vista search
problem, but I refuse to pay Microsoft more money to downgrade from their
flawed product.

Microsoft has shown little concern about losing old files when Vista search
does not work, and has shown little interest in debugging or troubleshooting
the search failure. Instead of being helpful and learning about a flaw in
their new product, Microsoft now blocks E-mails from me, including Nick
White, who hosts the Advanced search tecniques blog. I am "rejected" by
Microsoft now because I wanted Vista's search to work and they now refuse to
talk about the problem or any solution. From May 5th:

Hi Daniel,

In addition to the other posts, this may help as well.
