Doing a object with Search function.

from Stardock Forums

Can anybody give me a clue to build an object that works to search files on the computer... or in the web could be interesting.

Thanks in advance!

gef had a number of themes that had a internet search object in it.  The script for that I think was written by Martin.  RND may know something about local search of the computer.

There are DX browsers in the gallery. I think even Zubaz did one. As for local desktop search, I haven't a clue.

 

sViz or Skarny might be able to help.

You can also define a new object in Builder then set it to System type then choose Find for the system function which will call the standard windows search function.

Thanks for remembering.

I probably have made hundreds ox DX objects for personal use and there have been more than a few search ones for internet sites.  I never made one for the file system because the built in ones were so good.

Good luck on yours.  I can't wait to see it.
