  Yes!, you can use "tree" and file name!  For example (tree command.com)
"enter"  This works for finding files that you don't know where they are
hiding and also accepts wild cards.  I've used it to search for a file which
I've placed wildcards in both the file name and extendtion and tree has
found all of the files on that drive that it could possible be!  For
example:  (tree comm*.*) will find of the possible command.com or simular
files such as command.bak on your drive being searched.
