Default How do I search for a document in all my folders?

I know what the name of it is, but where's the search box in Vista? I think
it's a pdf file.

Open the Computer application from the desktop shortcut or from the Start
menu. The search box is in the upper right corner. Just type in whatever
part of the file name you know.

Since you posted this question in a Word forum, it's probably necessary to
mention that you can't open a PDF file in Word.
