At work I presently have Adobe Reader 7 and when I do a search a Search Panel appears on the right hand side displaying the results of the search. In Adobe Reader 8, which is showing on an SMS push to my machine, does not produce the search results panel. I must keep hitting Find Next and this is so much slower than being able to view the varied results. I have gone looking for a way to get Adobe Reader 8 to display the Search Results panel but my efforts are in vane. Does anyone know how to or if it is even possible to get it to display the search results panel? Thanks for reading, Bryan

Try this: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Reader/... Life's more painless for the brainless.

Ctrl-Shift-F will open the search pane in a separate window. You can then click on the Arrange Windows button at the top of the search pane to place them side by side. Here's what I have found - (If you find a solution let me know) 1 - If you click the arrange window button, you'll get side by side wndows that don't take up the full screen (looks sloppy to me.) 2 - If you close the search pane, the main will return to full screen. If you then exit Adobe, the next time you open a PDF it will open in full screen mode. This is good. However, if you close the main window when it is sharing the screen with the search window, the next time you open Adobe the main screen will be at the reduced size. So to retain the full screen mode for the main window upon opening, it's either 2 steps to close (Search pane first then main window) or 2 steps to open (open Adobe then doubleclick the title bar). Kind of annoying, at least to me.

Thank you both very much and I apologize for not having found this myself. I am usually at work at the time and very busy so I had looked around within Adobe Reader 8 in three separate attempts. (My PC was refreshed due to a dead hardrive; hence the SMS push for Reader 8) After posting my question early this morning I had shut down the PC and went about my day and later thought that I really should have tried searching for an answer outside of the application itself. I have Reader 7 on my home machine and on my current PC setup at work with the annoying nag from SMS to push out Reader 8. Thanks again, Bryan

Not to worry...I didn't even realize it didn't act like V7 until you asked, so I'm glad I searched for the answer before I actually needed it.
