Hi,
In the latest release for MSDN Search, we have retired the Search Code funtionality. We currently have a number of solutions including Library Code Examples and Samples, Galleries and Codeplex which allows our users to search and discover code. We are continuing to invest on a richer search experience as proven by the enhancements we have made to search results with added metadata such as ratings, downloads, clicks. Here are some examples:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Search/en-US?query=openfile&refinement=117
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Search/en-US?query=xaml&refinement=456http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Search/en-US/?Refinement=203&Query=xaml
Stay tuned for further improvements in MSDN Search in the coming year.
Thank you.
