Where do I go to find all the documents in Word 2007 folders that
contain a specific text or property?
In Word 1997-2003, the "Open" dialog box had a feature that allowed
the user to enter the specific text or property to be found and it did
a search and listing of all files/docs containing that property. Where
is this option in Word 2007.

That functionality was transferred from the Office program group of Microsoft to
the Windows program group -- meaning that you use Windows' search function
instead of anything inside an Office program.
If you don't like the search included in Windows, there are third-party indexing
programs such as Google Desktop and Yahoo! Desktop Search.
