Annoyance finding OneNote pages with Vista search

P

Phil

Vista never shows the OneNote page titles containing
the string i've searched for unless i open the "search results"
window.
e.g. even though vista may have found the page(s) i'm looking for,
it returns "No items match your search" -- so i must open
the search results window *every time* just to see if something
is there.

Does this happen to anyone else? can this be "fixed"

This sounds really strange.
Never ever had something like that.
Just to fully understand the situation:

After firing the search, does the search-box get yellow?
does it show the search word and the arrows with "Page 1 of <n>?

The page titles are not highlighted in yellow, right?

Did you try to run a "repair"?

Thanks for your response.

This is really an issue with Vista's desktop search,
not OneNote. Searching within OneNote works fine.
Perhaps i should have posted to a Vista group, but since
the behavior described only happens with OneNote pages,
i thought maybe someone here could help

Now I understand even less than before :-( :-(

I'm using Vista too and do not have any problems with searching for
things stored in ON.
As I have many locations included with the Indexing, it sometimes take a
while until the results appear.
Normally I just clock on "Search everywhere"..
