Looking for a program capable of using wildcards to search
thru .cab files on a Windows install disk.

Thanks.

From a Windows Command prompt, a command like

extract /a /d base4.cab comm*.dll

will list all files matching comm*.dll in base4.cab and all .cab files
which are alphanumerically later (I.e., use the name of the first .cab
file by alphanumerical listing).

Obviously you have to insert appropriate paths.

HTH,
