sharepoint 2007 : Search in WSS

Next to the search box is a scopes drop-down that enables you to choose from scopes if any are configured. By default, you only have the choice of searching the site itself (see Figure 1).

Figure 1. The search box in a WSS site enables you to search within the site.

When you are viewing a document library, the search box has an additional option in the scopes drop-down (see Figure 2). This option enables you to search only within the document library, excluding other document libraries.

Figure 2. The search box in a document library enables you to search only in that document library.
