Hi;
I need to look up 1800+ items in over 600+ files.
items are listed in .txt format
files are in excel format.
I would rather not have to open/close the excel files.. (takes too long)
1) Is there a way to look these 1800 items up?
2) What is the best way to store the results.. in Excel, Txt or other..
I know I can shell to the cmd.exe and do find or findstr command string..
But doing this brings bad results.
All I need is the file names that contain the search string (item)
Does anyone have any ideas and sample code...
Thanks in advance for your time...
