Default Outlook 2007 Search Not Work

The "Search Inbox" feature of Outlook 2007 is not working. When I attempt
to search for something, all I receive is the message:

"Search results may be incomplete because items are still being indexed.
Click here for more details."
"No matches found for ???"

Can anyone tell me how to resolve this problem?

I'm running Vista Patrick...

Are you familiar with the Vista Search Services? If so, can you tell me if
I can install iFilters and they will work?

Default Outlook 2007 Search Not Work

Hi Bob,

Outlook Instant Search in Vista is a hit or miss. Either it works or it
doesn't. Your best bet is to go into Control Panel, Indexing Options,
Advanced and select Rebuild. Then leave Outlook open over night and see
if it search works then. No guarantees. It might just not work again...
I don't know anything about Vista Search Services really. You might want
to ask in a Windows Search or Vista group. I'd try the private one
first.

Default Outlook 2007 Search Not Work

Bob and Patrick,
My computer which is on 24/7 took most of a week to build the initial search
index. The Outlook .pst is 803,000 KB in size.
It was a new computer with these specs:
2.40 gigahertz Intel Core 2 Duo (2 installed)
64 kilobyte primary memory cache
4096 kilobyte secondary memory cache

It is definitely a "hit" with me.
