Searching for files in .zip archives

J

John Healey

How do I do this in XP? In NT, if I wanted to find a file
in a .zip archive, I just searched for *.zip with the
filename in the advanced search.

I cannot seem to find a way to do this in XP.

Searches it automatically. Just put the filename in the FILENAME box not
text box. Zips are treated as folders.

Do you have something else opening zip files like winrar or winzip? <---
that's a hint.
