I believe (but I may be wrong) that if you enable the Indexing Service on Windows and check the "Index files with unknown extensions" that it will work on things like .pas files.
It is a known issue with Windows search that it won't find items in non-MS files out of the box. Alternatively, something like Google Desktop Search would work, especially with a 3rd party plugin like Larry's Any Text File Indexer which will index things like .pas files. FWIW, I use Google Desktop Search in preference to the Windows Indexing Service. HTH, Conor -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John With MS's SEARCH utility you are suppose to be able to look for files containing certain text. However, when you do a search on a file name *.PAS and e.g. search for the text "begin" it doesn't find any file at all. The search seems to work only on TXT and DOC files. Does anybody know about this at all and has anybody perhaps an idea or another little utility to do a search on PAS and other source files ? _______________________________________________ Offtopic mailing list [email protected] http://ns3.123.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/offtopic
