Default Opening files with part of the file name in Word XP

I have a customer who has hundreds of files in Word. Most fo the file names
begin with s long medical term and then a space, a pound sign and a four
digit number. i.e. bariatric #2843.doc. Wejust migrated from Word 2k to Word
XP. She syas she used to be able to open a file in word by just typing the
four digit number in the File Name field and click the OPen button and it
would find that document. XP will not do this. Where can I set a default for
XP to look at all the parts of the filename?
Thank you!
