Searching for a Doc

I am trying to search for a document that has a specific word or phrase. In
xp pro it was easy, in vista it is difficult. I think you have to use
Filters, but I can not find a filter dialog. What is the step by step to do
this.

Thanks

You should be able to do this in the Start Menu search box, enter your
search phrase and take a look under the "Files" result returned.
