I've forgotten how it works (or if it works) in Windows XP. However, if
you're using Word 2007 in Vista, press Ctrl+O (for Open), navigate to the
desired folder, and type your keyword or whatever into the Search box in the
upper right corner of the dialog box (the same search box is available in
Windows Explorer in Vista, but it's generally more convenient & direct from
Word's Open dialog).
There was much I didn't like about Vista, but I *love* the Search box and
the way Windows Explorer is integrated into [most of] Office 2007.

Hello...
I'm working in Word 2007 and I'm trying to search my main folder for a
letter I typed. Is there a way I can type a keyword and the program can
search through all the files under that folder????
