For 7 years I have been able to locate correspondence in Word 2000 by
searching for files where properties contain certain keywords, or where the
files text contains specific words. I know how to add properties to a Word
2007 file but cannot find out how to search for a particular file by using
those same properties, or by specifying specific text/words used in the file
itself. The MS help screens say you can search by property values, but do
not make is easy to find out how this can be done.

The easiest way I've found is by using the All Files option in the
older-style Windows Search Assistant. It then has a search area for 'A word
or phrase in the file'. The newer, Vista and Win7 search utilities don't
offer this option right away, but if you switch to the classic search
assistant (the one with the little dog), you should have the option.
