Mike, >>XP does not find anything on my PC Me either! >>probably because I don't know the trick. Probably the same for me. >>I'd love to hear your opinion. My opinion of XP...great for home use, but immediately removed it from my laptop 3 years ago and put WIN2K on = it. I can not stand the XP "Fisher Price" interface and can not use it = unless I switch back to "classic" mode. Same for the "Control = Panel"...I could spend hours doing nothing until I switch that too. >>know the trick. Seems the "trick" among the guys I work with is the new google desk top = search tool...I haven't tried it yet...but them seem to love it.

Inside the file put "Select 'findmeifyoucan_not' from dual;" and try WXP dir/file search capabilities. XP does not find anything on my PC, but that's just probably because I don't know the trick. I'd love to hear your opinion. Regards, Mike Thomas -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
