And then the Search dialog/capability is a great extra bonus. Rob ---------------Original Message--------------- From: edgar purdy Sent: Wednesday, January 04, 2012 11:09 AM Subject: Windows Search in VB6 .bas and .frm Doesn't Work Using Windows XP and VS6.0 When I use Windows search to find a file with a certain string in it, lets say search for Dim in *.bas or *.frm I should find lots of them, but Windows search finds none. If a take a .bas file and change the extension to .txt Windows search for Dim in *.txt finds what I am looking for. Is there a search that will go into the .bas and .frm files and find strings? Thanks.   Reply to this email to post your response.   __.____._ Manage Settings | Unsubscribe | Create FAQ | Send Feedback    Copyright © 2012 Toolbox.com and message author. Toolbox.com 4343 N.
