Default How to make the file search to find files by "text or property

Perhaps the text that you are searching for and the "number in Excel"
are not the same thing? They only appear similar to the user?

Yes, the search criteria is being added to the "includes".
It was working before partially. It did not find all files.
I have tried Windows 2000 file search. It did not find the excel file by a
number in its cell too.
Best regards,

I am puzzled as to why it is not finding the file then. Have you tried
several different searches? Is the search criteria being added to the
"includes"? Was it working before?

Yes, the Location is actually accessible, in NOT a hidden or system folder.
I can browse to those files and open them.

That goes without saying. I set file types and Search Location also.

Hello!
How to make the Office 2003 Advanced file search to find files by the "text
or property"? The Office 2003 sp2 Advanced file search does not find a Word
or Excel file by a word or a number in an excel cell.
