You can use LAN Search Pro to search your local area network using wildcards. The rules are the same as for MS-DOS and Windows. For example:
s*.mp3 finds all MP3 files which names start with s.
*.doc finds all files with the DOC extension.
music finds all files that contain music in their names, e.g. "my music", "MusicCool.wav" etc.
You can search using several wildcards at a time by separating them with semicolons.
