As everyone in your organization starts adopting document collaboration using SharePoint 2010, instead of email attachments, the ability to quickly and accurately search for the right information has become even more critical.
The search box in the upper right corner of SharePoint 2010 requires little explanation. Let’s, however, further streamline our lives by enabling document search straight from your desktop.
1. Search for documents as you would normally do in SharePoint.
2. Modify the search scope as you see fit.
3. Click on the rightmost icon in the upper right corner (folder and magnifier-looking icon).
4. Windows Explorer opens up showing the newly added SharePoint search under Favorites and Searches.
5. Optionally rename the search by right-clicking in the left pane.
6. Volunteer your free time gained from this tip to worthy causes.
