This comes as part of the Operating System - no additional purchase or expense required. Microsoft's latest OS, Vista, also includes similar functionality, I'm sure, although I haven't seen it for myself yet. -S- ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org

Re: [Hornlist] files
Alon, I'm assuming you are maybe talking about issues of the horn list email that you are archiving? Or is it something else. No worries, there are solutions. If you are using a Mac, all files are indexed for title, and files with text are indexed for content. You simply use the "Spotlight" feature, or do a "find file", and you are good to go. The spotlight feature also works within the mail program to search your mail files. I barely organize my computer files anymore--I just put them all in one place and search for the one I need. If you aren't using a Mac, well, I'm sure somebody has kluged up a solution someplace. ;-) Best, Carlisle On Apr 3, 2007, at 11:47 AM, Alon reuven wrote: Hi all, I would like to know if there is any program which would be able to find a specific subject in the issues I kept in a file . some of the information is valuable , but due to the largr number of volumes and issues , it is almost impossible to find a specific subject . thanks , Alon Reuven ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/ options/horn/clandel%40adelphia.net ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org

Saying "file" is like saying "container." There are all kinds. I've been a professional software developer for 25+ years. If you'll write me off-list, and tell me more about what goes into your file, I'll be happy to help all I can. ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
RE: [Hornlist] files
Try Yahoo Desktop search. It's free. It works in the background to build an index of your hard drive(s), then, after the index has been built, you can pretty quickly find what you're looking for.
