Even better, you can do command-space which brings up spotlight and just
type a few characters of the file you're wanting. It will then, more or
less instantly, show a list of matches. You can navigate this list to
get to the specific file. Search on Windows was always horribly slow to

Hi Carolyn,
VO-D is the dock
Is there a special setting to enable command shift d to go to the desktop? It

If you're going to use Spotlight to quickly find documents, make sure the
documents category is checked under Spotlight preferences. I kept wondering
why it didn't find my grocery list, then I opened Spotlight preferences and saw
that the documents category was unchecked.
