    When you have the folder open in explorer... type date:>(DATE TO SEARCH FOR)  in to the search box at the top right of the screen.

    This example will give all files modified after 5/10/09

    date:>5/10/09

    Hello woozer9000,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Windows Vista Community site.  A new tool in Windows Vista called Instant Search helps ensure that you are never more than a few keystrokes from whatever you are looking for.

    In addition to what msspbm stated, you can try the steps in the link below which also explains the process.

    Tips for finding files

    I hope the information is useful.
