If you still need a tool to search for files with specific text, their is a new version of grep (GREP32) has long names and all that stuff - and it's free.

>I see. With all the efforts, time and money we spent to meet MS regulations, we finally are back to those early days when search was not a part of a Windows. It was before Windows95, I believe. I think you know where all that money are now accumulated. Sorry, just cannot hold my emotions.

>>>In the company (where I am working) all the WindowsNT and 98 user PCs were replaced with Windows XP. Nearly every other user asked me how to change Windows Appearance back to "classic". Though it would be better to create the automatic procedure, I took this opportunity to show them how to work with the Display properties dialog, and how to change TaskBAr and StartMenu properties.

>>>However, I was not able to figure out how to change the appearance of the SEARCH (for Files) dialog.
>>>Though fancy and showing a cute puppy, the new dialog seems useless:
>>>
>>>- first of all it does not work properly when searching the string in the files on any PC I tested. It always looks for keyword in the NAME of the file even the options are clearly set to "Search anywhere in the file". Meanwhile users need to search only in the files content.
>>>
>>>- it does not allow users to set all the parameters as they used to set in Windows NT or 98.
>>>
>>>Besides creating my own dialog with, say, CREATEOBJECT('Filer.FileUtil'), or using MS Office Find dialog, or the third party product, is there any chance to get the classic find dialog back? I mean, not only the classic appearance, but also with proper (classic) search results and understandable and consistent option settings dialog !
