cards, such as an asterisk (*), to indicate missing characters in the lename.

folder in Look in or click Browse to locate the folder.
3 To search subfolders, check Include Subfolders.

the dialog. To directly open the result, just click it. Right-click it to choose one
of the options from the context menu.
Procedure 2.14 Searching by Contents or Properties
For a more detailed search, you can also specify further options, such as a text the
le must contain or the creation or modication date of a le. To search for content
or properties, proceed as follows:
1 On the Name/Location tab, specify at least the path to search for the le. You
can leave Named empty.
2 To search for certain content in a le, click the Contents tab. In Containing
Text, enter the word or phrase the le to nd must contain. This option does
not work for all types of les.
