Using the Search Dialog is easy.  Simply select the tab of the option you wish to set and make your selections by using the mouse to point and click..

The initial tab allows you to select the volume  (or volumes) that you want to search.  Unlike the File Finder in Windows, this design allows you to select multiple drives without having to select all of them.  

Network drives can also be searched by the program. One added feature is that you can use a set of default drives.  This set can be changed at anytime.  In the example below you will see that the diskette drive (on drive A) is not shown.

For convenience, all of the search parameters are temporarily saved as you begin the search process.  You can instantly recall the previous set of criteria and alter it if necessary by adding new limitations or broadening the search by including additional drives or directories.

You can also save the current set as a permanent resource to be used again and again.

You will find additional examples which will show the features of the Tabbed Search Dialog by selecting Search 1, Search 2, and Search 3 on the button tree on the left.

One additional feature on networked drives (NT and Novell) is the ability to search for files using  the ownership fields.

Note: Novell specific version priced differently.
