Hello! I´d like to make a program (.bat) in which the user types a certain string and the program should search it in ALL Files from the current directory and it´s subdirectories, also showing the path were it finds it. Thanks in advance!

The following script will do the task on Windows 2000 and XP. @echo off if not "%1"=="" goto start echo. echo This batch script will look for a string on all the files echo from the current directory and its subdirectories. echo. echo Sintax: %0 string echo. goto eof :start for /R %%F in (*.*) do (     FIND "%1" < %%~sF > nul     if not errorlevel=1 echo String found on %%~fF ) :eof That script will FAIL on DOS6.22. The same task can be achieved on that OS, but much more work is involved. -- Leonardo Pignataro - Secret_Doom -- secret_doom@hotmail.com www.batch.hpg.com.br
