Windows Search 4.0 not working with Outlook 2003
I just installed Windows Search 4.0 (use to be called Windows Desktop Search) and It's not finding anything in Outlook 2003.
I have reindexed 2 times.
If I pick Outlook or email
* If I search for my name which is in all emails (either from or to) nothing comes up. (No email found for Larryg@mydomain.com)
* If I search for anything that I know is in an email - nothing comes up
I have checkemarked .pst files in the setup
any help would be greatly appreciated.
My pst file is in C:\Outlook\ folder if that makes any difference.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! It works now. I must not of had Outlook opened when installing the program.
By the way Windows Search still does not show in Outlook as an addin. What shows is below.

Thanks again for the perfect answer.

LJG, glad the problem is fixed.
I wonder if this fix ever worked because I have the same problem. I installed Windows Search 4.0, then the Windows Live Toolbar (because I did not know that you needed both). That did not install the Outlook Add-in. So I uninstalled Windows Search 4.0, rebooted and re-installed Windows Search 4.0. Still no Outlook Add-in.
Is there something else that needs to be done? I saw on another website that someone suggested opening the settings in Windows Live Toolbar in IE and then downloading and installing the Outlook Toolbar, but I cannot find that in my Windows Live Toolbar settings.
Any other ideas?
I'm finding the Windows Search settings are all over the place.

Thanks.
Microsoft Desktop Search Outlook Addin does not show in Outlook. I will uninstall, re-Install Microsoft search, re-index and let you know.
thanks
