1117394 2010-07-09 10:04:00 Does anyone know if the "Search " program installed in all XP versions are 100% reliable.

I have found that occasionally it does not find all Files with a word that I am searching for.

Is it me or the program.

1117395 2010-07-09 10:06:00 Depends what youre searching for. If its hidden it may not find it. It doesnt work 100% in Vista or Win7 either Speedy Gonzales (78)
1117396 2010-07-09 10:19:00 It is a common word used in 8 excel wookbooks.

It finds them in 6 workbooks, but not the other 2.
