Open dialog box settings? File Name field no longer filters contents
I can't be the only person who's noticed this difference, but I've searched everywhere and can't find anything on this... perhaps I'm just using the wrong words. Anyway...
Lets say I have a word document named "Messager Manual" that i want to open.
Windows 7 scenario: with Word 2007 open, I click the home button and click Open. I browse to the location of my documents, and I type "messager" into the File Name field. I'm met with an error window which says...
Windows XP scenario: with Word 2007, I click the home button and click Open. I browse to the location of my documents, and i type "messager" into the File Name field. The entire contents of the folder are searched and then filtered down to only contain all file names which contain what is placed in the File Name field.
Does anyone know why they changed this functionality and if there's a place to edit these settings?
I do realize that I could use the new file explorer to accomplish this, but it seems silly to me that they would add in this functionality in one area, only to remove it from another.
Thanks,
