<QUOTE>
This was posted on the Works section and I wanted to get it posted here.



Someone was looking for a tool to search for Stored Procedure and an old routine FindInFiles was brought up.  I and others have made modifications to this routine, originally written by Cameron Purdy, and I have merged Oystein's changes with My changes .. then fixed some errors that were found  and so .. without further ado .. 



Newest version found [url=http://www.sigafoos.org/download_files/fif_chk.zip]HERE[/url]



It is a Sysprog Check out .. Try it if you need a "searching" tool.  Works with any file available ..

Thanks for the latest version of FindInFiles (my most often used utility). I especially like (and agree with) the 'about' box!

<QUOTE>DSig,



I must admit I forgot to download and install your new version until now. But now that I did I'm happy to tell you I found 17 new errors in your program..... ...hahahaha! Just joking!



Just one detail: I first couldn't get the About button to work. It helped to recompile the FindInFiles subroutine. I don't know why. I first thought your newest checkout didn't contain the FindInFiles subroutine executable, causing the old version to run, but it seems the newest checkout [i]does[/i] contain an executable.



You ask for ideas for features. There's one thing that springs to mind:



After you've done a search and found your rows you often need to check each occurrence of the search string. So there should be something that [i]helps you spot the occurrences[/i]. As the system is now you must switch to the System Editor, open the row, and do the same search again. In the case where you need to [i]edit[/i] the row this extra work is unavoidable, but often you just need to [i]inspect[/i] the row.



I can think of two alternatives:

- Some possibility of searching for the search string within the found document. Say F3 finds and highlights the next occurrence, F4 the previous one.

- An option for switching on a "hits" column in the viewer, showing 

the number of hits in each line - similar to the option of switching on line numbers.



If you think my idea(s) is worth considering, don't go ahead and implement it until I get a chance to discuss it a bit more.
