[Jim Portillo]

Will do.  I only have one data file though.  Frustrating, to say the least.

Is it possible you have multiple data files? It wouldn't hurt to try the
following:
1. Open the Tools Menu
2. Activate instant search
3. Open the search options
4. Uncheck the data file you want searched.
5. Save the changes and try another search.
