Users can search through files on their computer, items in Outlook, or on their network.
These search areas are called scopes. Note Office XP Search includes support for quicker content searching. Although this feature is not required to use the Search functionality, enabling support for fast searching creates an index that makes searching faster. If you are running Windows 2000, Office uses Indexing Service, which is installed by the operating system, for fast searching. After Indexing Service and Office XP are installed, users can turn the Indexing Service on or off by using the Search options link in the Task Pane.
