Am using WinXP. I search for files all the time (like *abc.doc, 200*.xls,
etc.), but how do you search only FOLDER names?

Let's say you want to find all FOLDERS that were created with "letter" in
their name (and don't want to see any FILES.) Here's what I did so far, but
nothing seems to isolate folders
Right click My Computer
Click Search
Click All files and folders
(unsure at this point, but... "type of file" = FOLDER does not work)
Click to expand...

Thanks,
George
 
what word did you use to search, for example..if you were looking. as you stated, folders with the word' letters' in it. Well, that's what you type in the boxes..and I'm not absolutele sure about this, but I don't think you can search folders exclusively, but the search will search files and FOLDERS.
So, typing in the word "folders' is not going to work, but typing in the name of the folder, I think, will.
