Default Find - (Ctrl/F) - Another way?

EML files are text files. You can use the Windows Search function on
them.

In the Search function you can search for files named
*.EML
and supply the words to search on.

You can right click on the folder to select the Search function.

If the folder only contains EML files you skip the files named field.
If there are other kinds of files, supplying the file name field speeds
the search.

Looking for a way, similar to "Find" (Ctrl./F), that will locate words
within an .eml message. Have several folders on the desktop where I
store
("save-as") .eml messages, that I edit now and then. The difficulty is
locating a particular paragraph out of fifty or so, even though I know
a
word or two in the paragraph.

Thanks, Bud (in Oceanside, Ca.)
