Microsoft Office 2007

Instant Search helps you to quickly find items in Microsoft Office Outlook 2007. The Instant Search pane is always available in Mail, Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Notes, Folder List, and Journal. This article focuses on finding messages in Mail. However, you can use the same search techniques to find any Outlook item.

What do you want to do?


Enable or disable the Instant Search feature

Enable Instant Search

Instant Search requires certain Microsoft Windows search components in order to function. When you start Office Outlook 2007, if you don't already have the Windows Desktop Search component installed on your computer, a dialog box will display prompting you to download the software. If you download the software, you must restart Outlook in order for Instant Search to function.

Note Windows Vista includes Windows Desktop Search, so if you are using Office Outlook 2007 on a computer that runs Windows Vista, Instant Search is enabled automatically and there are no prompts.

If you don't enable Instant Search, you can still search but search performance and functionality will be limited. Click here to enable Instant Search displays below the Instant Search box in case you want to enable Instant Search later.

Instant Search pane

Disable Instant Search

To not get prompted to download the Windows Desktop Search component, do the following:

  1. On the Tools menu, click Options.
  2. Click Other, and then click Advanced Options.
  3. Under General settings, clear the Show prompts to enable Instant Search check box.

    Note This check box does not appear if your computer runs Windows Vista or if your computer runs Microsoft Windows XP and you have already installed the Windows Desktop Search component.

To disable Instant Search if the Windows Desktop Search components are already installed on your computer, clear the check boxes under Index messages in these data files in the Search Options dialog box. For more information, see Change the Instant Search options. Clearing the check boxes disables search functionality, but does not remove the Instant Search pane.

Important Disabling Instant Search prevents you from using the Windows Desktop Search query syntax. You can, however, use Advanced Find as in earlier versions of Outlook. To use Advanced Find, on the Tools menu, point to Instant Search, and then click Advanced Find, or just press CTRL+SHIFT+F.

Find a message

To find a message, do the following:

  1. In Mail, select the folder that you want to search in.
  2. In the Instant Search box, type your search text.
    • Messages that contain the text that you typed are displayed in the Instant Search Results pane with the search text highlighted.

      Note By default, it is not necessary to click the Search button Button image to start the search. The Search button is enabled only if you have cleared the Display search results as I type when possible check box in the Search Options dialog box. For details, see the last section in this article called Change the Instant Search options.

    • To narrow your search, type more characters.
  3. To widen your search to include all folders in Mail, at the end of the search results, click Try searching again in All Mail Items.

    Alternatively, in the Navigation Pane (Navigation Pane: The column on the left side of the Outlook window that includes panes such as Shortcuts or Mail and the shortcuts or folders within each pane. Click a folder to show the items in the folder.) under Mail Folders, click All Mail Items or press CTRL+ALT+A.

    Search Results

    Callout 1 Click the folder to search in.

    Callout 2 Type your search text in the Instant Search box.

    Callout 3 Messages that contain the text that you type appear in the results with search text highlighted.

    Callout 4 Click to clear the Instant Search box and start a new search.

    Callout 5 Click to widen your search to all folders in Mail.

For examples of how to find exactly what you are looking for, see the section Tips for narrowing your search using search query syntax in this article.

Notes

  • To return the insertion point to the Instant Search box, press CTRL+E.
  • After you’ve performed a search and then located your mail in the results list, you can clear the search and Outlook will keep you on the last item you selected.
  • Attachments are searched but search results from attachments are not highlighted.

Add more search criteria

You can make your search more focused by adding criteria as follows:

  1. In the Instant Search pane, click the Expand the Query Builder arrow.

    Instant Search pane

  2. To add more search criteria, type your search text in the From, Body, Subject, or To lines.

    Add Criteria

  3. To display more search fields in the Query Builder, click Add Criteria, and then select the search fields you want from the list.
  4. Tip You can also delete search fields in the Query Builder by clicking Remove in the list of search fields.

  5. Enter your search criteria in the new search fields.
  6. Notice that as you enter criteria for the search fields, the Instant Search box displays your criteria as search query syntax. The syntax includes the search criteria followed by a colon, and then the criteria value that you entered, as shown in the illustration below. As you become more familiar with the search query syntax, you can type your query in the Instant Search box instead of using the search fields.

  7. View the search results in the list below the Instant Search pane.

Tips for narrowing your search using search query syntax

The following table shows examples of searches you might find useful. The search query syntax, available when the Instant Search feature is enabled, follows this basic form: keyword:your search criteria value.

For example, from:bobby

You can also use logical operators AND, NOT, OR, <, >, =, and so forth to refine your search, and these are noted in the table. Logical operators must be typed in uppercase letters.

Note The search query syntax is created automatically and displayed in the Instant Search box when you use the Query Builder described in the previous section.

Include data files in searches

By default, Office Outlook 2007 includes the following data files in a search of All Mail Items:

You can, however, select any data file to be included in searches.

All Mail Items

Important Choosing which data files to include in searches applies only to a search of All Mail Items that searches across one or more data files.

Choose which data files to include in searches

Do the following:

  1. In Mail, in the Navigation Pane, click the arrow in All Mail Items.
  2. Select the name of the data file that you want to include or exclude in your searches.

    For example, your POP3 account might be for home and personal e-mail messages only, so at work, you want to search only your work e-mail account. In that case, clear the My Home E-mail check box to exclude it from being searched.

    Another example of a data file that you may want to exclude from a search is a large archive folder.

    As a third example, you might work at a legal firm and keep information about each of your cases in different .pst data files that you keep open. If you are working on a specific case, you might not want .pst files for the other cases to be included in searches related to the specific case.

Clicking the message opens a dialog box that shows how many items remain to be indexed. Clear the check box if you don’t want to see those messages.
    • Search

You might also want to clear this check box because the search results are not displayed as fast as you would like.
    • Make searches faster by limiting the number of results shown This option is selected by default. When your search returns an extremely large number of results, Outlook will limit the number that are shown to speed up search and show you the most recent items. Outlook displays a message in the Instant Search pane alerting you to this limitation. You can click the message to open a dialog box and see all of the results.
    • Highlight the words that I search for This option is selected by default. Clear this check box if you don't want your search results to be highlighted. If you want to change the color of the highlight, click Change, and then select a color in the Color dialog box.
    • Deleted Items

    • Include messages from the Deleted Items folder in each data file when searching All Items This option is not selected by default. Select this check box if you want to include deleted items in your searches when doing a search in All Mail Items.
