I've experienced similar problems with Find in Leopard.VERY FRUSTRATING.
There are some alternatives to Find and Spotlight, but I'm not very experienced with them. The mother of all would probably be the command line "grep" in Terminal. You can open Terminal and use "man grep" to get the manual page for using grep. A person experienced with grep can locate just about anything I believe. The problem is it's not user friendly. As far as alternative applications, Google Desktop is probably the most well known: <http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/32232> Another useful freeware alternative is EasyFind: <http://www.devon-technologies.com/download/#freeware> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
