Search folder AND subfolders in Outlook 2007

[Peter Mostovoy]

The search options in outlook are either ALL mail or Current folder.
When using current folder it does NOT look in the sub folders of that folder.
As I, and probably many other users, use several levels of sub-folders how
do I search existing folder and all sub-folders, WITHOUT searching all mail!
2003 HAD this capibility!

Outlook 2007 has the same capability; use Advanced Find (CTRL+SHIFT+F)

I'm not seeing Advanced find searching thru subfolders, unless you list the
subfolders in the In: text field. If you browse, you can expand the folder
tree and click on multiple folders, but I can't find an option "Include all
subfolders". Is this available?

If you click Browse next to the In field, at the bottom of the dialog box
that appears there's a check box for "sub folders".

Thanks, I missed that! I wish that were a sticky setting.
