Tools: Adobe Reader search results

[Geoff Hart <ghart -at- videotron -dot- ca>]

In Apple's Preview software (the PDF reader bundled with OS X), using  
the search function produces a little window pane to the right of the  
document window that displays a complete list of all occurrences of  
the search term in the document, plus a few of the surrounding terms  
(effectively, a "keyword in context" list). Very useful! Clicking on  
any item in that list takes you to the correct page and highlights  
that item.

I thought I'd seen this same feature in Adobe Reader (formerly  
Acrobat Reader), but when I went looking, I couldn't find the  
settings that would let me do this in the current version of the  
software. Am I misremembering, or does Reader actually provide this  
functionality? If so, how do I enable it?
