Searching in Vista and Server 2008


 

Having just recently moved to Vista and Server 2008, I was not sure how to search for file content.

Searching for file name is fairly clear. You type the file name in the search box. See Figure 1 upper right hand corner.

After reading several helpfiles, I found that you type the content in the box also. The OS will search the content from the same search box.

This is easier but not too easy to figure out. Did Microsoft get it right? They got it have right; the function is great but they need to include some direction that content search is in the same box.

This is also my first attempt at a picture in a blog. The picture does not work. See the empty space below. Well. That will be a blog later.
