    In XP you used to be able to do and advaned search where you could search for text inside the files, is that still possible in vista? (in other words if you were searching for a letter that had the text in it "dear Mr. Smith" you could put "dear Mr. Smith" in the advance search, and it would find the document)

    Just type the words in the default search window in Vista. Click the "start" button, and a search window opens automatically right above it. Type in your search key word/s and you should be all set.
