If you use the SEARCH function from the Start menu, it does say 'files and
FOLDERS'

Can anyone offer a definitive answer on this. Am using WinXP-pro. Is
there
a way to search for FOLDERs that have a specific name. For instance, find
all folders that have COMPANY as part of their name so it would bring back
something like this:

c:\JonesCompany\
c:\CompanyFiles\
c:\My Documents\OldCompany\
c:\Programs\Quickbooks\Company\

It's not files that I want...everybody knows how to search FILEs for
specific names (like *.doc, 19??.xls, etc.), but how do you search only
FOLDER names? Here's what I did so far, but nothing seems to isolate
FOLDERs:

Right click My Computer
Click Search
Click All files and folders
(unsure at this point, but... selecting that the "type of file" = FOLDER
does not work)

Thanks,
George
