When I create a new appointment in Outlook2007, the results are not reflected
in a subsequent search. Even closing out of Outlook does not solve the
problem. Only after rebooting the computer does Outlook recognize the event.
What is the issue? I do have the item closed and saved, I even clicked
"close all items" to be sure. While I can see the item in the full month
view, I type in the title of the event and nothing comes up.

How are you searching for the item? Are you using Windows Desktop Search, v
3.0 Beta? If yes, it can take some time to search and index the results.

Remember, both applications are beta, have error reporting code in them that
slows them down, and have not been completed nor optimized for production
release.

No, I am not using Windows Desktop, I am using the built-in "Instant-Search"
function, although I do now see the results.

Since the lack of results was merely a time-delay of the indexing process,
is there or will there be any way to manually index items? My problem is
that I created quite a few events that are somewhat related, but I wish to
edit all of them. Rather than selecting each one, it would be nice to see
what I just created, or quickly search for the items.

The built-in Instant Search is based on WDS, IIRC, so you may need to just
wait a while before searching.
