On the Win XP Pro SP2 box I'm tying this on right now, the built-in "Search" finds a string in TEST.TXT and TEST.ASP, but not TEST.CSV or TEST.FOO. FINDSTR finds all four. Apparently, despite the fact that I told "Search" to look for files matching *.*, Search still only searches some file extensions. Thanks, Microsoft! I'm remember Vista working the same way, but don't feel like firing up a VM to check. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
