How do I add archive folders to search function?

[Guest]

I am using Microsoft Outlook 2003. When I have my folder list open on the
left side of my page, I see the Archive Folders and all the files listed
below this category. However, when I try to do a search and try to add these
folders to my existing list Archive Folders and subfolders do not appear on
the list. Same thing if I try by clicking on New Search Folder under the File
that appears on the tool bar and try to Customize Search Folder, I do not see
Archived Folders and the subfolders. How do I add this function so when I
search I can search only the Archived Folders? Does anyone know? Thanks ahead
of time.

Searches cannot cross PST boundaries. You need a separate search for each.
Are you using Advanced Find or Search Folders? Either should allow you to
select which PST you're searching.

Thanks Brian, it did the trick. Hoped that I could specify a search that
would include everything in Archive folder rather than doing a search only in
Archives, but hey, it works... thanks again very helpful.

I'm glad it's working now.
