Are you aware that there are about half a dozen search utilities in the Files Section - the best one (in my opinion) for searching inside the VFP development environment is Erik Moore's (in the VFP General section I think). There is one in the Project section that implements Regular Expressions - if you are into rocket science ;-)

And I've written one that output's to word, it is designed to run outside the development environment (see link below).
