How can you conduct the basic search through your documents?

[Guest]

With Microsoft Word 2003 it has the "search button" that displays the search
engine to the right of the screen. With this button you can search throughout
all of your documents "(e.i.)*.com" and it will display all similar documents
find on your hard drive. Where is this button on Word 2007?

Use the search tool in Windows Explorer instead. It is more flexible and
easier to use.
or
From Outlook > tools > options > other > advanced options > check 'Show
Prompts to Enable Instant Search'. This will put the instant search prompt
in Outlook, which when run will install and index your whole system to
provide fast searching.
or
enter e* in the file > open filename box to give you all the files in the
active folder beginning with 'e'
