    Abstract: A machine implemented method comprising:
    displaying an open file window by selecting an open file command from within an application which creates files, wherein the open file window is displayed in response to receiving the selection of the open file command from a menu and wherein the open file window is configured to display files created by the application;
    displaying a search input field to allow entry of a search query to find a file;
    receiving a search query and performing a system wide search in a plurality of locations using the search query, wherein the system wide search searches through content and metadata of different types;
    displaying a result of the search within the open file window;
    receiving a selection of a first file in the result of the search;
    receiving a command to open the first file in the application;
    displaying, in response to the command to open the first file, content of the first file, within an application window of the application.

    Abstract: A machine implemented method of searching data, the method comprising:
    storing metadata for a plurality of files created by a plurality of different software applications which execute on a data processing system, wherein the type of information in metadata for files of a first software application differs from the type of information in metadata for files of a second software application;
    storing content from the plurality of files;
    searching, by a data processing system, the stored metadata and the stored content in response to a single command from a user, wherein the single command is entered into a system wide user interface available on the data processing system for the plurality of different software applications and wherein an output of the searching is displayed as the user enters a search query and wherein the output of the searching includes executable applications and wherein the executable applications are configured to be launchable from the displayed output.
