How to search Comments?

Post by chumbo »

Hi,
Is there a way to search the Comment column? Ideally I would like to search only for folder names and text in the Comment column (and possibly also the Tags field).

I'm looking for a program that can help me with specific task involved in speech editing so my guess is that the word 'speech' could either show up in the program name itself or the Comment field which I use a lot to fill in a description of the program.
Thanks in advance!
Chumbo

Here are some examples,
  • cmt:chicago - Find all items with 'chicago' in the comment
or
  • "Done" /fld=cmt - Finds all items with comment "Done"
Type the following in the XY addressbar for more info:

Code: Select all

help "idh_find.htm#idh_findfilesbytags";
edit: reworded for more clarity

All sorted, thanks! :)
