Vista Search

I am a little shocked that the VISTA operating system does not have the same abilities as the windows xp system had.

Like, there was a very cool search routine in windows XP which was a lot like the "grep" utility where you could search for a particular sentance inside a file and you could search all files. Right now, I am trying to find my business plan and something like that could come in handy now.

What is the secret selection to make in the Advanced tab that allows me to search for a particular sentence or word within a file?

Also it seems that the business class of vista is not friendly with the google desktop.

This is Breakpoint forum - a social forum. Please post in the LabVIEW forum for more responses.

The question is completely unrelated to LabVIEW so I don't know why you would point him there. The question should be posted to one of the Microsoft forums.

Sorry and thanks Dennis.

 

I saw some threads where such kinds of not related to LabVIEW questions are also answered by people who knows something more about that and willing to share their thoughts. That's why i pointed him out there. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Also the google desktop problem seems to be due to the fact that he has 64bit vista.
