Re: Outlook 2007 Searching

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Not sure you quite got this pegged. You are interchanging Instant Search and Advanced Find as if they are one in the same. They are not.
Advanced Find persists in Outlook 2007 and can be used just as you did in earlier versions of Outlook. Instant Search is Outlook 2007's new and far more robust search feature that relies upon the new Windows Desktop Search engine (an add-on in Win XP and incorporated in Vista). The dialog boxes you are posting are the ones you get when you select the "Expand Query builder" option for Instant Search. Obviously, that is used to restrict your query, not to expand it.

How do Idefaultto always have the "SearchSubfolders" checked?

Jeff,

I couldn't find a way to do it, but I did find something that in my
case was actually easier to user. I've created an entry on my blog
(with screen shots) for it. Hopefully it will help you out.
