Does anyone know why files would not be found when using a
wildcard (*.doc) or what I will call a partial wildcard
(*abc*.doc) in search from within windows explorer, and
what to do to get it to work properly again?

Thanks much for your help,
Dan
 
Dan ...

Does it occur no matter who logs onto the computer? If you have not tried
it, create a new user and test. Does it happen in Safe Mode? Do you have
the Indexing Service enabled? If so, disable it, reboot and test.

Hope this helps.
