When I try to use Search Assistant to find C preprocessor directives, it
gives me the message:
"The Indexing Service query cannot be completed successfully because the
volumes you have specified are not indexed."
This happens whenever the search string begins with #. Apparently the
Search Assistant interprets a # as indicating a directive to the Indexing
Service, not an ordinary text string to search for. If I enter "include" as
the search string, it will find the files containing the string -- but if I
enter "#include", it refuses to search. I tried to escape the # with the
search string "\#include", but the \ didn't serve as an escape character, it
became part of an ordinary search string (no longer beginning with #).
So, is there any way to get Search Assistant to search for C preprocessor
directives?
Thanks,
