| Vista Search Hello, Admittedly, I haven't spent a lot of time researching this on my own, but... One of Microsoft's "selling points" of Vista is its "expanded search capabilities". Sometimes, I like it, but sometimes I would like it to be a little bit more old-fashioned; for example (and I hope to God that THIS didn't go the way of the Siren's Song, as did spellchecking in English!), but... How can I search by: 1) file type 2) date modified 3) date created , etc. Can anyone send me a link? Thanks, smackedass |

| Re: Vista Search Whaayle, if THIS isn't interesting. The new OS reverts back to old-school DOS type prompts. I don't mind, but it doesn't make any sense.
