Search without index in 2007
Folks
Is there any way to search a PST when the index are not complete ? I have recently migrated to Vista and the indexing is still crawling gently trough my 1.5 Gb PST. However I still need to search ! Is there a way to perform an old fashioned, slow but effective search ?! Any help welcome ! --alexT

You can disable indexing on that pst-file via Tools- Options- Search
Options... Enable it again when you're done with the computer. You can leave it on overnight to complete the indexing. Sadly you can't have both indexed searches and non-indexed searches available to you at the same time. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- "AlexT." wrote in message ...

I would think that Outlook should propose to revert ton "classic" search when indexing is incomplete (while informing the user about it)... FWIW

It would also be handy for troubleshooting purposes. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- "AlexT." wrote in message ...
