   RW>It's nice to be able to enter a conference area and search for old items..    
   But it sure   
   RW>would  be nice if there was a way to do a System-Wide search of all message   
   areas. I   
   RW>know it would be system intensive, but consider this..   
      
   RW>When you have 50 or more message areas and you're trying to find the recipe

   RW>barbecue sauce but you don't remember whether you posted it in the Good   
   Housekeeping   
   RW>area, or the Budget Gourmet area, or the Unique Cooking With Style area...    
   so then you   
   RW>have to go into each area and repeat the search..   
      
   RW>By doing a global search similar to the way you can when looking for files,   
   this would   
   RW>prevent you from forgetting to search an area.   
      
   RW>Something to consider adding in the future.. heck it might even pay to use   
   the same   
   RW>search code but add a checkbox for a global search, or just an area search..   
      
      
   Hi Rick,   
      
   I have not tried the new wcNav program yet, but the old wcNavigator   
   allowed you to search all checked message areas for information.  Have   
   you tried that yet?  Use it and click on messages and then do a search   
   via which ever conferences you choose and see if you can find your   
   Bar-B-Que Sauce.
