Default Outlook 2000 Find only looking forward?

When I use Find it only seems to look ahead from the current date. All my
previous Appoitnment are there but Find doesn't see them. I tested this by
adding Appointments with "Test" in the subject line and dating them for 1 x
yesterday, 2 x today (1 earlier today, and 1 later) and 1 x tomorrow (4
entries). FInd only located the ones for the current date or in the future.

I can't see any way to select a date range or starting date for Find search
from.

Any ideas? The data is all there - Find just can't.

TIA - R.

Hi Diane - thank you, it worked like a charm! I didn't try Advanced Find last
night as I assumed it was only the Find parameters that were different and
nothing allowed me to enter a date range. Who knew the underlying Find
function was different?

Anyway, thank you for your advise - much appreciated.

- Rob.
