Default Vista search question


Sometimes I want to search only for a file name without including
contents and sometimes including the contents of the file.

In XP this was easy but in Vista I can't seem to find how.

Am I missing something?

Mary,

To search for file name, precede the search term with name:

for instance if you want to find the file stuff.txt, search for
name:stuff.txt
