    Searching file system in DOS?

    Is it possible to search a whole drive for a file in DOS? I need to find a user's normal.dot file and it doesn't look like it's in any of the obvious places.

    Any help is appreciated!

    From the root of c: type

    dir Normal.dot /s

    That should kick off a global search for that file.
