   It's nice to be able to enter a conference area and search for old items..  But   
    it sure    
   would  be nice if there was a way to do a System-Wide search of all message   
   areas. I    
   know it would be system intensive, but consider this..     
      
   When you have 50 or more message areas and you're trying to find the recipe for   
    Texas    
   barbecue sauce but you don't remember whether you posted it in the Good   
   Housekeeping    
   area, or the Budget Gourmet area, or the Unique Cooking With Style area...  so   
   then you    
   have to go into each area and repeat the search..    
      
   By doing a global search similar to the way you can when looking for files,   
   this would    
   prevent you from forgetting to search an area.     
       
   Something to consider adding in the future.. heck it might even pay to use the   
   same    
   search code but add a checkbox for a global search, or just an area search..
