Merry Christmas from all of us at PC IT Back Together and have a wonderful 2018 which we are geared up with a bunch of new clients and Microsoft Office 2018 is gearing up to maybe be out in March. I hope they fixed the search in that, but in their forum it isn't a high priority. It's almost like Internet Explorer they canned that and didn't want to fix things so they come out with Microsoft Edge.
