When trying to figure out what .brn, .hap or .txt file contained a certain word, search no more! I found a GREAT little program that will handle it for you with ease!
You can set byte size in KB or MB, filters, etc. I usually open Windows Explorer to my C:/Program Files/Zabaware/Ultra Hal Assistant 5/DefBrain folder then at the address bar do a COPY, go to the HDSearch window at the top and PASTE. (saves typing). Then click on the Begin Search and it will display all files and show the number of times in each file your word appears. You can then double click on each file and use the F3 feature to trace your word through the file. At the bottom: Search for Filename you can use wildcards like *.brn to have it search all .brn files for a specific word.

BTW, It's a free download! No Ads, spys, etc. Good Stuff! From:

Art,
I'll check out the freebie program. Another one worth considering is Agent Ransack which is also free. I'm discussed it in this prior post.
