(This may already exist and I can't find it...)
I have three searches that I run repeatedly (one of which is a bit hard to remember). The "Name Matching" field in the Find panel remembers the last 9 searches. Thus, I've had to create a .txt file on my desktop to remind me of the searches for when they no longer appear in the list of the last 9 searches that I've performed. It would be awesome if DOpus could somehow save searches that a user wants to easily recall.
The Opus Find command can be put into a button

Or do you mean Windows Searches? These can be saved as Stored Queries:

I'll try putting that in a button. I'm not surprised that there was already a way to do this! Thanks.
So I've tried several different buttons ... and it just isn't working for me. I'm absolutely sure that it's a case of user error and that the switches that I'm including in the command are wrong. The folder that I'm searching in is a bunch of folders, some nested several folders deep. Most contain music files. My search is looking for a bunch of extraneous files that I don't want to keep. Here is the current version of the button that doesn't work:
Find *.(txt|log|sfv|m3u|db|url|htm|html|nfo|ico) IN H:[folder name] RECURSE
Any help to fix this search so that my button works would be greatly appreciated.
That should work, as long as your [folder name] part is correct, and you have quotes around it if it contains any spaces.
Thanks, Leo. As I suspected, it was user error. I didn't have quotation marks around the path name (and yes, there are spaces in the path name).
