Is this possible?

Hi,
Maybe you can:
1) first search for all files named "ds" in your network (which will list all ds folders).
2) check option "Selected locations".
3) Select all files (which will be all ds folders)
4) Run an empty search (will show all the files in these ds folders)
5) Save this template to say: ds
6) Uncheck option "Selected locations".
Next time you want to search only ds folders:
1) go to template
2)uncheck everything except "load search location"
3) double-click on ds
4) any search you do now will be in these ds folders.
PS: ofcourse, one can automate this with scripting, using command loadsearch.
