Bingo! I just realized this may be where the confusion was and tested  
it. All I did was replicate what Ralph found. I was using Find File in  
the Finder, not Spotlight as accessed via its own menu. They both use  
the same search engine in the background, but (obviously) the  
interface is different and that's what limits what can be done.

Ed, sorry for the confusion. As if the Spotlight/Notlight stuff wasn't  
enough, you've got the Spotlight menu vs. Finder's Find File to make  
things even messier.
