QUICK FILE FIND IN A DIRECTORY
You know about the Windows Find utility, right?
Two common ways of bringing it up are to click
"Find" on the Start Menu (it's
"Search" in WinME), or to click on the
"Find" item on Explorer's Tools menu (in
Windows 95.) Here's a way that is even more time-saving
when you are already in the Windows Explorer: click once
on the directory you want to search in (which could be
your entire hard drive or even My Computer, if you want)
and then hit the F3 function key. A "Find"
window will pop up at once with the search area already
set up the way you want it.
