I have done a clip art search nothing would come up. When I clicked on the drop down menus (Search in & Results should be) all the boxes where not selected and no results were found. When I reselected all the boxes, did the search, still no results were found. A couple of times when I restarted the machine it could find results, but now it doesn't matter if I'm in Word, PowerPoint, or Publisher, log off & on, restart, no items will be found when doing a clip art search. I strongly beleive it was some of the latest updates from Microsoft because I used to be able to do the search fine a month ago or so. I have loaded the clip art from office 2000 premiun and if I access it directly I am able to find everything but the office apps are not able to point to the correct location.

From where are you running the search? Within an Office application? Life is more painless for those who are brainless.

Yes, Word, Power Point etc

What locations "Collections" do you have configured to check? And did you make sure that the clipart was installed to the proper path? Life is more painless for those who are brainless.
