Searching your entire HD for text is time-consuming. If you know what folder
the document is likely in (My Documents for a start), it helps to navigate
to that folder first in Windows Explorer. To open Windows Explorer,
right-click on the Start button and choose Explore or press the Windows Key
+ E. When you have the right folder open, click Search on the toolbar.

I normally save my documents by classifying them and then adding a date.
I
must have incorrectly typed the date of the document I'm now attempting
to
retrieve. I do remember specific names within the document itself. Can I
find
the saved document by content?
