We want to search our file system regularly for certain file types and
possibly for text contained in the files.

We essentially need a tool that provides the primary functionality of the
Window Search facility that can be run in batch from a "Scheduled Task". We
have seen many great tools, but all run from a UI, not from batch.

And if source is available that is great.

Please advise,

Keith
