I'd just load the whole file and use "is in"...

put URL ("file:" & tFile) into tData
return someString is in tData

In my experience, there isn't much to be gained by loading the file in chunks (open file...read from file etc). It usually seems to be most efficient to hand as much work off to the engine as possible.

Best,

Mark

I have several thousand files which contain a mixture of text and binary data. I need to "look inside" all of them and determine which ones contain a specific text string such as "baj_sese_ 20070105.rk". What is the most efficient rev method to do this? These files are of various sizes ranging
from 700kb to 10mb.
