missing files & folders

Question:

I have a windows 2000 server that acts as a domain controller, file server,
DNS, DCHP.

There is a share on this server that users access that has a few files and
folders. Just recently it appears that half of the folders & files are
missing???

However, when I do a search for the files or folders they come up in the
search box. If I try and find the same files or folders from My computer or
explorer or even a mapped drive I see only half of the files and folders
that are actually there?

Anyone know what might cause this? I haven't tried re-booting yet just to
see if it clears up the problem. Ultimately I'd like to know why this
happens? There are no errors in event viewer also.

Thanks,
George
