Searching for text

[microsoft.news.com]

It seems to me that the search facility in XP
doesn't always look inside every file for files containing text.
Ho can I force XP to do this?

Robert.

Hi, forget the search facility of XP.
Get the freeware from http://www.filelocatorpro.com
Very recommended.
