Word Searcher

In earlier versions of Word, one could open the "Open file" dialog box and
search through files for different attributes like "Text", "Last modified",
"Contains" and many other items. Where is that ability in Word 2007?
 
Hi Searcher,

Microsoft has given the search responsibility back to the Windows folks. You can use the Windows tools, or Live Search Desktop or
other 3rd party product.
