Is there a way to search projects?
I am using CS5 and have a episodic television series that I have been working on for some time. I have a video intro within the program which I edited a good while back. I exported that timeline into an avi file which I have used much of the time. However, I now need to edit the video and can’t seem to find where I edited it. I know it was on this computer and it has to be somewhere but I have opened so many projects without finding that specific sequence.
My hope is that I can do a search of the entire computer to find out where a specific file is being used within a timeline. I have a few clips that the only place they are or would be used is within that sequence. If I can search the computer for instances of those files usage, I think I could find the original sequence.
Thoughts?

I’m on a PC. I have a feeling that I created this “open” on another projects sequence name accidentally. I need to find that project and the only way I can think to do that is to look for one of the files that is on that timeline. I think it may be the only place on the computer where that file is used in a timeline. Unfortunately, I don’t think I can simply search sequence names or for that file. I need to know WHERE that file has been used.
Does Adobe have some sort of searching tool for this?
