When looking, once you have clicked on a document you are committed to this one because when it opens, you lose all your search results. If one bad, you need to perform a new search. Alexandra

The search function is very good b u t... IE I need to find a doc with the tax word in the title. I type in the search box "tax"2011"and I get a list of docs about 10. I chose the first, but he was not the one I wanted.  Now I have to retype everything again in the search box because the original list has disappeared. It has always been like that with my computer, but a few weeks ago, I saw in a friends computer that remained of the original list. Alexandra

I did not know that search results from using the start search box could never changed as you describe.  I would also like to know if it can happen.  In any case, an alternative is to minimize all windows so that you see the desktop and press the Windows key with the F key.  You will get a search window that uses the index, as the start of the start menu box does, and the results do not disappear.  If you ever want to search the entire hard drive, including the stuff not indexed areas, go to start, computer and drive Local (c) and use the search box at the top right of the window.  Or, you can first do a search of content indexed with Windows-F and then click on the choice of the computer under the words "search again:" if wanted to complete research.
