>>>The title is my question. I downloaded GoFish (latest beta) and took a cursory look at the info about it. I saw examples of calling it from code but didn't notice anything about using it as part of the IDE. The reason I am interested in doing that is I would like to do something that doesn't seem possible in Code References (which I like a lot and use routinely).
>>>
>>>The something is finding modules which contain both of two search strings. This afternoon I was looking for modules which contain "Delete" and the name of a table, let's call it Sam. I tried this in the Search box:
>>>
>>>delete + sam
>>>
>>>It found nothing, which I believe is because it was looking for the concatenated 12 character string.

>>>As you can see, my question isn't really about GoFish (although all comments about it are welcome). I just want to search for modules containing, anywhere in them, both of two expressions. Any tool that can do that would be great.

>Thanks, Gregory. Regular expressions came up on another issue at work recently and I made a mental note to learn more about them. Conceptually I know what they are but the syntax is Greek to me. Today I will dig in.

Never worked on Unix systems ?

This will give you a jump start and you can use it as a manual (in the foxpro world). You'll need to do some exercises
