Hi All

I would like to ask you if you can help me with this:

I need a search script that given certain parameters such as:

        1) extension type (multiple)
and
        2) search text

i will go through a certain folder and search within the documents
(extension types chosen) for the given search text/(s). The text, such as
'Reports Live', should be searched for both the word  'Reports' and the word
'Live' seperatly but also together. The result should be a log file with the
names of the documents found!

Is this possible? What i did is the following:

        rm search.log
        touch search.log

        for i in $1*$2
                do
                if cat $i | grep -a $3 ; then
                echo $i >> search.log
                fi
        done

        Where   $1 = the folder searching in
                $2 = One extension only!
                $3 = Search text with no OR


This works but its not exactly what i want! Are there any Search tools
available or?

Tahnks
Nick
