Search function problem

[gduns - with the Lord]

is it possible that when you search, you are hitting the enter key instead of song...artist. If you are doing that, it will not search.

Thanks for getting back to me. The things I have done to try to fix this problem are as follows. Oh first of all when I hit search it does nothing. I mean you can tell that you have hit a button but it doesn't bring up the search box at all. I just finished removing all traces of hoster and all files except of course the kma's. I did move the kma's to another folder and also deleted the microstudio folder from programs. I then downloaded a fresh install of 3.06 and rebuilt the data base. Still nothing. My next option is I guess I am going to go back and try 2.219 and see if that does anything. This is really strange to me considering that even mtu might be not know whats up with this. Everything else works perfectly.
If anyone else knows of anything I would appreciate it. Does the search function use any other computer function to help it work? Something on my computer that could be wrong and not letting it function properly?
Ok thanks I'll let you know If I find anything out.

Ok I downgraded to 2.219 and still the same problem. Hmm....
It seems like the search box may be coming up somewhere, but wherever it is I can't see it. I click on the button and the button pushes. I feel like that box is hiding somewhere.

I don't know if it would, but you never know. Is it possible that it opens on the task bar?

try restoring your computer to an earlier date.

Ok I tried restoring to an earlier date and that didn't help. I updated my virus protection and did a scan for that. The only thing I have done that I can think of is intstall a microstudio demo. The only other thing I notice is that I have a file on my desktop that I have no clue where it came from and has files in it that I don't know what they are. They have the file extension .IRX
And there are some .ALL files
I'm not sure what to think at this point. At least everything else works fine, but I can't believe how much I miss it!

Thanks for the idea's. If you have anymore I'll take them! And I'll let you know if I fugure it out.

Single or Dual monitors? Is it possible that the search box is appearing on the secondary screen?

You mentioned you moved your kma files...are you sure the rebuild database found your songs. I'm guessing maybe that the database is empty and seeing no songs to search, it doesn't open that window?

Thats all I can think of at the moment, perhaps it will help...
