How to add file types to search for documents

[Guest]

When useing the Windows Explorer searh you can search for documents; then it
searches for things like .txt , .doc et cetera. I want to also have it
search fro .sxw files. Is there a way to change what Windows 'thinks' is a
document file?

If you have Windows XP Home Edition, try this Click Start Menu and Click
Search
and click the green arrow next to All files and Folders if you want to
search for other files other than documents in Windows XP Home Edition or
click on the green arrow to Documents to search for documents in Windows XP
Home Edition.

Hope this helps you.

Type *.sxw in the Search box and all of your .sxw files should be found.

If you mean when searching for text.

Search for All File Types (Line 136)
