Jayne, no I don't know hw to do a search of my Word Documents. Explain in words of one syllable, you clever old thing?

John,

I'm assuming a PC and not a Mac.

Open a Windows Explorer window (i.e. the window that files appear in). Go to your My Documents folder, if that's where you store your poems. If not go to whatever folder you store your files in. If you're not sure where they are, go to the "My Computer" folder, which will search pretty much everything on your computer. Look at the folder window for a small text box (something you can type into) that says "search". It will be most likely be in the top right-hand corner. Type whatever phrase you want to search for. Then hit the return key. The file or file(s) containing that phrase will appear in a list.

Good luck.

Matt
