    Hi folks,

    Thanks for a great program. I'm annoyed that I didn't find it sooner - I have been muddling along with the pathetic Windows search for years.

    I want to index files in a network folder. I've the drive up to be mapped to a separate database and that seems to work fine. However there are only a couple of directories (and their subdirectories) that I want to map.

    I've tried using 'include directories pattern', however I can only get this to index a folder and not it's subdirectories. Is that possible?

    If not, I will setup 'exclude directories' rules, but there are quite a lot, so it would be easier to include directories.

    Hi, you should be able to do that by specifying directories to be indexed instead of drives.

    Thanks - I didn't see the 'add directories' option.

    I removed the drive and added directories instead and that has sorted it :-)
