thanks Douglas,
tried your sergestions but to no avail.
yes it does take a bit of getting used to. I have been ok with it for the
first few weeks of using it but now its simply gone.
I found that when a file or files wre found it would put the list in another
window, but simply ctrl and tab got me there.
sincerely joe.

Joe,
Another way of getting into the Search Companion is Windows key and F. It might be
worth a try, although I don't know why f3 does not work.
The Search Companion in XP is a much more sophisticated tool than the search in
earlier versions of Windows. I remember that I had some problems at first with it. I
found Sarah Morley's book from RNIB very helpful in this and other XP novelties.
