Board index » Windows Vista » Add Search to Taskbar?

Windows Vista12
I need to add the Search box (for all folders, files, email, etc) to the

TaskBar in Vista for my boss. We're all using XP and added Desktop Search,

using the search box in the Taskbar for quick searches.



I can't seem to find a way to add it to the taskbar in Vista. I need a way

to put it in front of him as he won't use it via the Start Menu.



Thanks,



Christian

he can press start and search on the box in the start menu, there is no

search toolbar

on vista

you can add google desktop search but thats another program

I'm pretty sure there are Gadgets for the Sidebar that you could use

instead. It's a better place for a search box, if you like that sort of

thing.

He changed the start menu to "classic" so, there is an extra step to open

Search. That's one click too many appearantly.
