[QUOTE="toMACsh, post: 1062017, member: 112842"] If you know the file name, or most of it, it's just as accurate as typing the path to it, only you don't have to know all that, or type it. In other words, it's better! Hope it works for you! What? My "backup" drive is a removable flash drive. It never shows up in Spotlight, because I wouldn't have it "mounted" when I use Spotlight. My point was I don't want to open files without opening the folders they are in, because as soon as I'm done editing, I drag and drop the files onto the flash drive. But, for others who don't use my weird "backup" method, the Spotlight trick could be very useful indeed. [/QUOTE]
