Saving searches

Microsoft's been touting its Virtual Folders and saved searches all year. But they seem to have hidden the only way to save searches.
In
Vista 5342 I have to press Alt to unhide the hidden menus, then choose Save from the File menu.
Am I missing something, or is this the only way to save searches?

I don't have Vista in front of me to check this, but can you drag the icon at the leftmost end of the breadcrumb bar to the list of saved searches? It does sound like it deserves a toolbar button or something though.

Just came back out of Vista and I agree, the only way to access this is to enable Classic Menus. I guess they forgot to add one to Standard toolbar. There is nothing listed in the Bread crumb menu either. -- Andre Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta FAQ for MS AntiSpy http://www.geocities.com/marfer_mvp/FAQ_MSantispy.htm

I didn't mean a menu. I meant drag the folder icon at the left end of the breadcrumb bar to the navigation pane. In XP you can drag that icon elsewhere to create a shortcut. I'd expect the same to be possible in Vista.
