>Hi,
>
>A few months ago I installed Win XP Pro in my PC (before it was Win 2000 Pro), in both cases I was running VFP 8 SP1. Both Win OSs are portuguese versions.
>
>I have the following directory structure for my applications:

>C:\

>           FoxProgs\
>                    System 1\
>                    System 2\
>                    System 3\
>                    System 4\
>                     . . .
>                    System n\

>Sometimes I need to find the occurences of a search string in all applications, let's say: in what .prgs appears the word "decimals".
>
>For that I right click (in Windows Explorer) over C:\Pointer\FoxProgs and select Search. Next I fill the All or part of the file name: field with *.prg, fill the A word or frase in the file: field with decimals and press the Search button.
>
>Nothing is found.
>
>If I do the exact same thing, but with .txt files it finds the word I'm looking for.
>
>It worked ok in Win 2000 Pro, but doesn't work in Win XP pro.
>
>Any ideas on what it can be?
>
>Thanks,
