Hi,
We have a few excel files. When we search in the Windows Explorer by the following way, it returns some files
Go to Start --> Search --> For Files or Folders
Then select 'All Files and Folders'
Then enter the word you want to search for in 'A word of phrase in the file'
Then in the Look in field, select Browse in drop down and select the folder in which the target excel file exists
Let us say we searched for the word 'abcdefg' in the files and the search resulted in some files.
But when we go to the actual files, we are not finding the word abcdefg in the mentioned files.
In what situations is this possible?
Are the files really not having the word abcdefg and the windows explorer is showing the wrong results?
Or is the windows explorer correct and the search in excel not identifying the word because it is not given as a value but is hidden in the file in some way or the other?
What are the situations under which this can happen? What are the possible reasons for this?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
SBRS
