Greetings learned PHP(eople)

I`m using the following to strip values out of a file, however, the file
I`m accessing contains multiple instance of the search criteria, and I
only wanna return the first instance....
I`m just getting an empty variable and can`t figure it out...

$criteria = `grep "Files :" logs/$file`;

I`ve tried other things like 'grep --max-count=1 "Files :"...etc etc,
and that don`t work

Also tried shellexecarg (`grep blah blah blah);......still not working

Any ideas
