I have a phrase that I want to find in one of my word documents. I don't know which Word document. Is there a way of finding it? bill

   Click on the Start button in Windows and select Search from the Start menu.  This will open the Search Results window.
   The Search Results window has two textboxes near the top on the left side.
   Leave the first textbox (All or part of the file name) blank or if you know that all of the filenames of the Word documents end in .doc, you can put .doc in the first textbox.
   Enter the word or phrase in the second textbox (A word or phrase in the file) that you want to find.
   If you know where the Word documents are, specify this in the "Look in" dropdown box.  One of the items in the dropdown list is Browse... at the bottom.  Choosing Browse... will allow you to specify a specific folder.
   Click on the Search button and it will find all of the files that have that phrase in it.

THANKS MUCH!
