Searching in Windows XP using the advanced mode gave an option for searching
for text within a file (such as Word or PowerPoint); is there a way of doing
this in Vista?

Sure. Click Start. Click Control Panel. Click Appearance and
Personalization. Click Folder Options. Select the search tab. Then set the
options you want.
You can also get there by pressing Windows logo key + F, then click Tools,
Folder Options and select the search tab.
