| Mark, you and I had discussed desktop search for WinXP. I just installed this. You might want to check it out. When I am using XP, I sure do miss the search built into Vista- a lot. http://www.x1.com/products/xds.html http://www.apcstart.com/site/lgrant/...earch-now-free X1 Technologies has released its X1 Enterprise Client (formerly X1 Desktop Edition), previously $US75 ($102.50) for free download. X1 Enterprise Client is a full-featured desktop search application aimed at organisations and enterprise use, with a focus on information security. It indexes an extraordinary 370 file types including many not generally supported in desktop search apps, such as Adobe Indesign, Microsoft Access databases, vcard files, and more. It also has support for all the regular formats and programs you’d expect: emails, files, documents, attachments, pictures, music files, tasks, and calendar items. One of the slickest features of this desktop search tool is its ability to preview almost any file type immediately on search. X1 has close ties with Yahoo. In fact Yahoo Desktop Search is a stripped-down, Yahoo-branded version of X1, with some bundled indexing of Yahoo web services. The company has made the Enterprise Client free of charge thanks to an ad-revenue sharing deal with Yahoo. This new release is freely available from X1 Technologies’ website. Check it out and let us know your thoughts on it by posting your comments below. -- Michael ______ "The trouble ain't that there is too many fools, but that the lightning ain't distributed right." - Mark Twain | Guest

| Hey Michael. Thank-you very much for the link! This is a product I was not aware of. I will certainly check it out. Here is one that I found that was very interesting. I have tried it and seems to work very well, also. http://landvermesser.tripod.com/MacSearch.html -- Mark My favourite so far: Unknown device has been correctly installed.

| It's kind of a shame that MS whittled down the Search Bar in 5472. But complex queries from the search box still seem to work. For example this one genre:rock AND type:mp3 AND datemodified:>7/11/2006 gets all the MP3 songs from the Rock genre that were modified after 7/11/2006. <u158627_emr@dslr.net> wrote in message news:usjQrAAsGHA.1924@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl...
