Default Where is "open/tools/find/find files that match these criteria"?

I am frustrated with Office 2007 because I can no longer search for data
within file folders when opening files. This is a tool that I used
extensively in Office 2003. Ex, find file with property "file name"
condition "contains" value "thai" - search subfolders - find now.

Hi,

This is not an Excel problem, its Vista. You are using Vista?

Cheers,

After choosing File Open command
Choose the top level directory you want in the box on the top-left which
shows the current folder.
In the search box to its right type 'Thai'... it will show you all the
matching files
