Searching for files or folders

R

Randall Scott

When searching for files or folders in Windows 2000, you
can click on the Start button & click on SEARCH & then
click on FOR FILES & FOLDERS. Is there any way that you
can search for more than one text keyword in the contents
of a document?

For example, when performing a search for a file, in the
Containing Text search box, can you type "Excel and
Harvard" and Windows will search for documents in your PC
that only contain both the individual words "Excel"
and "Harvard" (similar to how yahoo or google works -
boolean logic).

Please advise.

Thanks!

No, there's no way to do that with Windows alone. You'll need a
third-party product of some sort.
