Spotlight Privacy setting in 10.4.11

    I'm trying to have Spotlight operational for one folder only - is this possible? The privacy settings in Spotlight Preferences only allow you to add folders that you want to remain private. I added the entire HD, effectively disabling Spotlight, but there's no option to drill down and remove one particular folder so that Spotlight will read its contents.

    Anyone have any opinions on this? - bear in mind, this is in Tiger, not Leopard.

    I can select my Macintosh HD and then command-click on folders to select them or not and i'm using 10.4.11, like the documents folder is not selected in the attached screenshot...

    Thanks a million, Licksy.

    Seems kind of obvious now.
